Big Stax 300 (Day 1A): How The Mighty Have Fallen

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Entries: 435

It was only minutes ago when Ben Coren was sitting on the largest stack in the room, and had close to 280 blinds.  Coren was in the tank and doing a lot of talking to Chris White, who was all-in for over 100,000 on the turn of J 7 2 2.  Ben eventually decided to make the call, but would mis-step as White tabled J J (turned full house).  Coren would be drawing dead with 10 10, and had to watch as a 10 spiked the river for the ultimate needle.

Coren would then iso-shove over an opponents all-in (for less), and would lose that hand as well (KJ < 55).

Chris White - 240,000
Ben Coren - 101,000
