Haraldstad Hammering Away Early

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The seat to the left of Joachim Haraldstad has been a one-way ticket to the rail so far today.

Peter Levine had replaced Frank Kassela in that seat with Haralstad and his tablemates sharing the details of Kassela's elimination.

Haraldstad held middle set with {j-}{j-}{x-}{x-} on a {q-}{j-}{6-} flop while Kassela held {a-}{a-}{q-}{6-} and over 400,000 chips ended up in the middle with Haraldstad's set holding to eliminate Kassela.

Shortly after that, Levine found all of his roughly 25,000 chips in the middle preflop against Haraldstad.

Peter Levine: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Joachim Haraldstad: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, with Haraldstad making a straight on the river to eliminate Levine and add another chunk to the biggest stack in the room.
