Do you think you're something special, coming in here to post the "Official" thread?

(Just kidding. Thanks for all your posts throughout the tournament, it's been exciting to watch. Go Fossilman!)

Does anyone have any info on Michael Kessler? I noticed he is from Spotsylvania, VA which is about 15 minutes from my house.

I guess I have a new person to root for.

Title: Ayhan Alsancak Doubles Up Through Greg Raymer
Log:
Hand 3 - Per Hildebrand has the button in seat 4, Connor raises, Raymer calls, and Alsancak moves all in from the small blind. The action is back on Connor, and he takes some time to make his decision, but he folds. Raymer makes the call, showing Ah-8c, while Alsancak has Kc-7c. They shake hands before the flop, as if to say, "May the best cards win." The flop comes Qh-7d-4h, and Alsancak takes the lead with a pair of sevens. Raymer needs an eight, an ace, or something runner-runner to eliminate Alsancak. The turn card is the 9s, and Raymer is down to six outs. The river card is the Ks, and Alsancak makes two pair to double up in chips.
