Dream Start for Brown
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The action was joined as Gregory Brown and Fabrice Maltez were competing in the first hand dealt of the day.
Playing a three-bet pot with a flop showing 10♣J♠6♠ and 35,000 already in the middle, Brown placed a bet of 11,000 from the small blind just to be met by an all-in from Fabrice Maltez for 129,000.
After taking some time to consider, Brown opted to call.
Fabrice Maltez: K♣J♥ 
Gregory Brown: A♥Q♣
There was no help on the 4♥ turn for Brown, but the K♠ river improved him to a straight, sending Maltez home on the first hand of the day.
