In the last hand of level 11, Joel Giguere was faced with 3 limps before he looked down at a premium hand in the big blind. He raised the 2K blind up to 9K, finding a quick call from the utg limper before the player in middle position slid forward his 58.7K stack. When action came back around to Joel, he paused for a moment before announcing all-in himself for roughly 95K. Holding only 30.5K total, the player in utg moved into the tank for a full minute before tossing his last chips into the pot.
Joel tabled , and wound up with the nut hand on a board, besting (utg) and (mp). He now holds around 185K and is near the top of the leaderboard here in level 12. A short break is coming up in a few minutes, during which we will bring an update on the top counts in play.
