LAS VEGAS–A good way to start the day …
From PokerNews:
Josh Evans Doubles Through Phillip Liou
After a flop of 10c-4s-3d, Phillip Liou bets 100,000, Josh Evans raises to 240,000, Liou pushes, and Evans calls all in for 582,000. Liou shows Ad-As, but Evans has 10h-10s for a set of tens.
The last two cards are 6d-8c, and Evans doubles up to over a million in chips.
UPDATE [3:07 pm pdt]: Josh is the chip leader, with more than 2 million chips. Should he end up on a table with Gus Hansen, he should be in prime shape after years of duking it out with Nic the Straddler. 225 players remaining … $50k guaranteed for all.
