Kent Padgett
Kent Padgett

In early position, Kent Padgett opened to 31,000, and Eric Shanks reraised all in for 307,000 from the big blind. Padgett made the call with {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds}, and he was flipping for the knockout against Shanks' {A-Diamonds} {10-Spades}.

Mr. Padgett is running hot today, and the dealer kept his streak alive with a clean board that came {J-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {9-Spades} {6-Clubs}. Unable to catch up, Shanks is out in 27th place, and Pagett is the new chip leader with 1.12 million.
