Pizzi Claims an Early Stack

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

All the money was already in the middle on a {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop as Walter Pizzi had an opponent all in for his last 1,000.

The all-in player was showing {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, but Pizzi had out-flopped him with {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for a pair of kings.

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Pizzi knocked out his opponent 15 minutes into Level 1.

According to Pizzi, the player had raised pre-flop and received multiple callers before Pizzi bet 2,000 on the flop, forcing everyone else out.
