Boyd Beats Billirakis

Boyd: (x)(x) / {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs} / (x)
Billirakis: (x)(x) / {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Spades} / (x)

Dutch Boyd and Steve Billirakis are sitting next to each other to start the tournament, and the two of them just got involved in an early pot. The two players each put in 100 chips on every street until seventh, where they both checked. Boyd revealed {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Spades}, and his pair of aces was good enough to take the pot and give him a nice boost to start the tournament.
