Pitstock Doubles With Quads — Twice

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A table in the White Section erupted in screams and PokerNews inquired about the reason.

According to the table, Kevin Pitstock had just doubled up twice with quads, first in a hand where he had {k-}{k-} on a flop of {k-}{k-}{5-} and snap-called a jam from his opponent.

Just a few hands later, Pitstock opened and the same opponent three-bet to 18,000. Pitstock called, and the rest of the chips got in the middle on the flop reading {5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}.

Pitstock had {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} while his opponent held {a-}{a-} and doubled up Pitstock once again when the board ran out {q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}.

A Few More Big Stacks Around the Room

Kanit Forced to Fold; Loses Chip Lead

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Mustapha Kanit

Mustapha Kanit has been cruising through the day, but his potential status as day-end chip leader has been put into question following a recent hand.

Kanit opened to 4,100 in early position and was three-bet by the player in the big blind to 15,000. Kanit called and the duo saw a flop of {6-Spades}{2-Spades}{a-Hearts}.

The big blind fired again for 8,000 on the flop, and Kanit called in position.

On the turn {q-Hearts}, the big blind sized up to 35,000, and once more, Kanit called.

On the river {4-Clubs}, the big blind brought out the big guns, going all-in for over 100,000. Kanit gave his decision some pause before opting to fold, dropping his stack to just over 600,000, which is no longer the biggest stack in the room.
