Jimmy Born Leads The Gold Section; Devonshire Hurt

The biggest score that Jimmy Born has ever recorded was his $14,099 earned in a World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) event held in Atlantic City back in December. He finished in 11th place in that tournament and he is currently leading the big boys - and not so big girls - in the Gold Section of the Brasilia Room with 68,000 chips.

Not far behind Born is the World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner Shankar Pillai. Pillai took down the $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em event back in 2007 for $527,829. To win that bracelet Pillai had to best a final table including the one and only Phil Hellmuth. Pillai is sat on 65,000 chips.

Bryan Devonshire only wishes that he had 65,000 chips! The former poker dealer has just been reduced to 10,000 chips in unfortunate circumstances. Michael McNeill moved all-in for 6,475 and Devonshire called.

McNeill{A-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}
Devonshire{K-Hearts} {K-Clubs}

So Devonshire just needed to fade the ace, and he didn't do a very good job of it.

Board: {A-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {Q-Hearts}

Devonshire down to 20BB.
