D'Ambrosio Off to a Hot Start

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Jimmy D'Ambrosio claimed to have just busted a player with pocket kings against pocket jacks to run his stack up to a pretty high amount. While recalling the story, he was involved in a hand with another player and made a bet of 15,000 on the river which his opponent folded to.

D'Ambrosio showed the {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} which missed the board "Player shows nothing" he said and stacked even more to his large stack.
