Hart Making Noise Early but Losing Chips

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

"Chip leader!" Kevin Hart yelled as he swept up a pot. "Chip leader over here!"

However, Hart's confidence may have been misplaced as he dropped the next two pots he played. First, he saw a board of {7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{j-Clubs} against Cary Katz and Ben Tollerene. Hart bet 6,000 and got a call from only Tollerene, on his left. On the {8-Spades} river, both players checked and Hart's {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} was bested by {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}.

Shortly after that, Charlie Carrel opened to 3,000, and Hart, who declared he wasn't having it from Carrel today, defended his big blind. Hart check-called 4,000 on the {5-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop and both checked the {j-Clubs} turn. Hart checked on the {3-Clubs} river and Carrel bet 20,000, over the pot.

"Too much," Hart said, immediately folding.
