Kenneth Natal Notches Early Double

A starting stack of 25,000 is usually enough to sit on during the first few levels of a tournament, but with unlimited re-entries available in this $1 million guaranteed opening event, some players are willing to risk them all early on.
Kenneth Natal is appreciative of that fact, after notching a full double up and sending an opponent to the registration desk in the process.
Natal held the 
and hit his gin card on fourth street with the board reading 
. Armed with a full house, Natal was more than willing to risk his first 25,000-chip bullet, as was an unfortunate player holding 
in the hole.
Although his opponent had flopped trip sevens, Natal caught up with a boat on the turn, and the 
on the river kept his hand in front. With more than 50,000 to work with now, Natal is the early chip leader, so we'll be sure to track his progress as the day continues.
