Hennigan Crushing

John Hennigan has been doing well early here on Day 1 and that continued when he recently eliminated a player over on his table. We arrived at the action with a board already showing {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and with Hennigan having enough chips out in front of him to put one opponent all in. The player thought for a long time before making the call.

Hennigan tabled his {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and his opponent look in despair as they turned over {a-Spades}{4-Clubs}. The river changed nothing and Hennigan raked in his new chips.
