"All In on the First Hand!"

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

"All In on the First Hand!" screamed David Blankenship from one corner of the room. "Not me," he then added with a smile.

All of the chips were in the process of being sent to Matthew Stolmeier, who was under the gun with {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and had gotten stacks in against Niels Rikhof's {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} from the cutoff.

The board read {5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, giving Stolmeier top set and earning him a double on the first hand of the day. Meanwhile, Rikhof headed straight to the registration desk to get back in on the action with a fresh stack.
