Assadourian Just Wants The Chip Lead

In the first hand of the day Eric Assadourian raised to 325 out of the small blind following the pre-flop limps from Chad Brown, Lee Nelson and Vanessa Rousso. All three made the call and a flop of {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs} fell down.

With action on Assadourian, he fired out 1,200, which was followed by folds from the remaining players in the hand.

As Assadourian tabled {6-Hearts}{6-Hearts} he stated, "I just had to make sure I was chip leader" as he raked in the pot to jump out to the early lead.
