Fukumoto to the Front
Level 21

As you can see from the chip counts, we have a new leader. Most of Kendall Fukumoto's big boost came in a badugi hand against Don McNamara. We missed most of the action, but we saw a huge pot up for grabs at showdown.
Fukumoto made a very strong [ax2x3x6] badugi, and McNamara's muck pushed Fukumoto to the top. He's got a few very excited, very supportive railbirds about two table-lengths away on the ropes.
