Cowboys for Vinson

Ben Vinson now has well over 10,000 in chips after eliminating the two players either side of him. After an early position raise, the player to Vinson's left moved in for several hundred and Vinson flat called with pocket kings. The next player along then pushed for around 5,000, which, after the initial raiser folded, Vinson duly called. I didn't catch the short stack's hand, but the shover had nines, which failed to spike on an otherwise eventful board.
