Josh Brikis - 216,000
Spoke with Josh Brikis whose big hand after dinner brought his grand chip total up to 216,000.
Opponent in mid-position opened for 40,000 and Josh woke up to pocket Kings. He calls from the small blind hoping Eric in the BB would ship his entire stack (30,000 more).
Flop of 3-5-6 gets Big Blind to go all in, with Josh the only caller.
Big tables a set of threes and Josh's Kings are drawing to two outs.
Brikis bricks the turn but makes a big splash on the river as one of his kings hits the felt.
"If I run good a couple more days I'll be happy" said Brikis.
