Italian Stallion Strides Ahead

I'd have to dust off my Miss Marple hat and investigate further, but at first glance it would appear as though Cristiano Blanco is the first to pass the 20,000 mark. He just eliminated a short stack with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} versus {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} on an ensuing {5-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} board.
