Thomas Becomes First Payout

Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Brandon Wilson opened to 40,000 from under the gun and was called by Michael Jozoff from the button. Aaron Thomas was in the small blind and he made it 150,000. Wilson jammed as the big stack, Jozoff folded and Thomas put in his stack of 770,000.
Aaron Thomas: K?K?
Brandon Wilson: A?K?
Wilson had three outs to hit and he found an ace on the A?J?6? flop to take the lead. The 3? turn and Q? river completed the board and Thomas became the first player to bust in the money.
