Event 1 (Day 1A): Bittan Triples Up

Level 5 (Blinds 100/200/25)
Total Day 1A Entries: 150

Jeromy Bittan
There was a audible celebration from Table 29, as Jeromy Bittan stood from his seat.  Bittan was already all-in by the time the action was caught, and he watched as Jesse Meyer would call William Kerr's all-in (Kerr had both players covered) on a flop of 7 6 4:

Bittan: 10 5       Meyer: Q 8        Kerr: A A

Turn: 4

River: 8♠

Kerr was only a river card away from chipping up to 100,000, but the dealer would table the 8, and Bittan would steal the pot away (tripling up to 49,000).  Meyer would be eliminated from field, while Kerr would actually break even after all of the madness (winning the side pot with Meyer).
