Flight of the Connor

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Connor Drinan just snatched the chip lead from Thomas Ward after a three-way all in. Drinan knocked out two players and is over 700,000.

There was previous action before Alexander Kuzmin raised to 115,000. Chen Wang shoved all in as did Drinan and Kuzmin called.

"I have aces," said Drinan as the players turned over their hands.

Indeed Drinan did have {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}, Kuzmin had {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Wang had {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. The board kept Drinan ahead when it ran out {5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Drinan eliminated both players and took over the chip lead from Ward, who is seated on Drinan's right, across from the dealer.
