Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Hollywood stalwart and poker vet Kirk Acevedo just became the first player past the 100,000-chip mark here in this flight and has moved into the chip lead.
Players have been gifting Acevedo chips all day and the merriment continued moments ago in a hand where four-spades filled a board and his heads-up opponent pushed all in without one. Acevedo made the call holding the 
to bust the player he suspects never even thought of the possibility he had made a flush.
A veteran of some of the tougher L.A. cardrooms like The Commerce and The Bicycle Club, Acevedo says he's used to finding a little more aggression on the felt than he's seen here in Niagara Falls, but apparently he's enjoying the free ride.
