Event 10: Spades are One Guy's Best Friend

$300 + $50 NL (1 Re-Entry)

Antoine Brings the Payne

Antoine Payne (Baltimore, MD) just hit two big hands, both ending with a spade on the river to give him the winning flush.

First Payne wins a three-way all-in with K♠ 3♠ which knocks out two players and takes his stack to 90k. Shortly after that Payne's at risk with Q♠ J♠ and again hits his flush on the river for a true double-up taking his stack to 185k.

Payne is clearly the big stack as 40 players remain on 4 tables.
