Kroon Gets a Walk, Starts to Talk
Mark Kroon — leader of this tournament after both Day 1 and Day 2 — is continuing to have fun despite having slipped back to below average chip status during Day 3 and the start of Day 4.
Just now Kroon received a walk in the big blind, and as the next hand was dealt he became animated, telling the table they needed to fold around. "You could make history… two walks in a row at the World Series of Poker Main Event!" he cried.
But [Removed:532] had picked up a hand with which he wanted to raise, and so he did. It folded to Kroon in the small blind. "I would have folded, but now I have to look," he said. When he saw his cards he continued to talk.
"I would have mucked this but now… oh well, I'm all in."
The table laughed as the big blind quickly ditched his hand and [Removed:550] did the same. "Hey I got an extra 15,000 because of my table banter!" said Kroon with a wide grin. "I'm back!"
