Barry Hutter is Trying to Reclaim the Chip Lead He Held After Day 1

We saw Ira Basil stand to make his exit from the tournament floor, while his entire stack was shipped across the table to Day 1 chip leader Barry Hutter.

The affable Canadian was kind enough to fill us in on the details of his bustout hand, one which had the table gasping when it was all said and done.

Apparently, Basil limped into the pot and watched as Hutter raised it up. Basil elected to make a three-bet and put the pressure back on Hutter, and Hutter simply moved all in to force Basil to the ultimate test.

When Basil snap-called, Hutter was sure his was trailing a premium hand, but surprisingly Basil tabled the .

Although the board ran out by the turn, giving Hutter a bit of a sweat, the river came clean and Basiil was eliminated in stunning fashion.

"I'm just shocked..." Hutter answered, after the dealer asked him to verify his count. "I don't know why he did that, I haven't gotten out of line all day."
