Matt Kirk just made his way down from the hotel and strolled through the tournament area. "Kirk get in here!" Tony G yelled from his seat. Kirk continued to pass by and walked up on Leon Tsoukernik with all of his chips in the middle. Tsoukernik held pocket sixes and was up against the ace-jack of Ivan Leow.
The board ran out clean for the King's Casino owner as he scored a double up. "See, this game is easy," Tsoukernik said to Kirk. "Jump in, it will be done quick." Kirk was convinced to register under the condition that the big cash game would get fired up after the tournament.
