Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Norm Macdonald

Norm Macdonald just sat down at the table with Anton Wigg and Pierre Neuville. Macdonald won a bit pot right away and started the tournament off well.

The board was already complete with {7-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} laying on the table. The pot had 9,000 in it and Macdonald put out a bet of 5,000, which is 100 big blinds at this point of the tournament.

His opponent ended up calling after a while and Macdonald opened up {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for a flopped set of sevens, while his opponent mucked his hand while saying he had pocket aces.
