Weekes Again!

Shawn Keller and James Weekes just tangled in a big pot that left Keller out of chips and Weekes as the chip leader in the tournament.

Keller got his chips all in with {10-Spades} {J-Clubs} on a turned board showing {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {A-Spades}, and trips are pretty good. But they're not as good as a full house; Weekes turned up {A-Spades} {10-Diamonds} for the unbeatable tens full. The meaningless {7-Spades} rivered.

With two pots in one orbit, Weekes has gone from average in chips to the top dog in the room; he's all the way up to 110,000 after collecting the rest of Keller's chips.
