Isle Open Event 7 (Day 2): Kirsch Making "A Nice Little Comeback"

"A nice little comeback there," one of Richard Kirsch's (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) table mates said to him, after he grinded his way from a four big blind stack...to a forty big blind stack.

Richard Kirsch (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) had been grinding a sub ten big blind stack for close to an hour, but would manage to 100,000 (ten bigs) after winning an all-in with 8 5 against A♦ K♠.  About ten minutes later, Russell Williams would open for 31,000, with Georges Boyadjian making the call.  Kirsch was next to act, and he would cut out a three-bet to 100,000, leaving himself only 40,000 behind.  

Russell Williams would take a good two minutes with his decision, eventually announcing that he was all-in (for 135,000).  Boyadjian released his hand, followed by Kirsch making an immediate call, quickly tabling A♠ A.  Richard was up agains the K♣ Q♣ of Williams, and would have him drawing dead on the turn, with the board running out A♣ 3 6 6♣.  Kirsch is now over 300,000, and is peaking for the day.

Richard Kirsch - 360,000
