LEONARD CORTELINO OUT

Championship Event

Leonard Cortelino was sitting with a little less than a starting stack, but felt well about his game and chances. Until he picked up pocket Kings in middle position. An early raiser made it 700 to go with blinds at 100/200. Leonard smooth called and a player on the button made it 3500.

The original raiser folded and leonard re-popped to 13k. His re raise was met with a shove and Leonard called. He had his opponent covered by 600 chips.

With his pocket Kings proudly displayed, the opponent showed AQ off, and before he could get them all turned over, Leonard snorted out, "friggin of course... the door card".

Leonard was more than miffed and went to the rail to explain what happened to his friends. By the time he got back he put the rest of his 600 in blind, and was eliminated the next hand.

There is another half hour left in level 6 before they hit dinner break.
