Starting the last hour of day 1 yesterday, PopKoRn wasn't exactly cruising in the tournament. Facing a lot of ups and downs, he was sitting at about 15BB. He had been rather aggressive so he didn't get much respect anymore at his table.
A key hand came up when he re-raised in the cutoff with KQ suited. He goes into the tank after getting re-raised all in by the button player. In his current range, KQ is rather high, so in the end, he decides to call. He's relieved when his opponent shows K8, and he doubles to about 40k in chips.
Short after this, PopKoRn gets Kings in the big blind. Another player, who was a big stack before but lost almost half of his stack earlier, goes all in. Easy call for PopKoRn, and he's a major favorite against his opponent's pocket tens. He's around 80k at this point, and ends day 1 with 92k, 7th in chips overall.
We're rooting for him, and for the 6 other belgians who are remaining in the tournament, on day 2 !
