WSOP: Event 2 $1,500 NLHE

From PokerNews:


A New Leader Emerges

We arrived at a table where a lot of chips were being pushed around on the flop.

The board showed {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} , and Ginikachukwu Izuogu passed the betting over to Michael Goetsch. Goetsch fired out 10,000, and Izuogu put in a check-raise to 35,000. Instantly, Goetsch jams it harder, all in for 75,000.

Izuogu digs for information. "Do you have aces? You have aces?"

Goetsch tells him, "Call and find out," so Izuogu obliges him and puts in the call.

Be careful what you wish for, Goetsch sees he's in trouble with his {4-Spades} {4-Clubs} against Izuogu's {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} . The last two cards on the board are {7-Spades} {5-Spades} , and Goetsch heads to the rail.

After the hand, we have our first three-hundredaire, as Izuogu sits with 305,000 chips in front of him.


I don't know who this guy is, but I want him at the final table just to hear Norman Chad say his name.
