Pillay Enters and Scores a Knockout
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
The Day 1a field has reached three digits and one of the latest players to jump in was Alvin Pillay. Among the first few hands he was involved in, Pillay knocked out a short stack who defended the big blind and flopped second pair with J♥6♠ on Q♥J♣7♥.
Pillay was miles ahead with the A♣A♦ and had little to fear on the 10♠ turn as well as 7♦ river runout.
