Event 8: The Tables Are Turned

$300 + 40 Seniors NL Hold'em (Re-Entry)

With the blinds at 4,000/8,000, Jim Plate opened UTG for 32,000, and watched as the action would fold all the way around to chip leader Steve Gill in the big blind.  Gill took a few moments before declaring himself all-in (having Plate well covered).  Plate immediately made the call, and the hands would be tabled:

Gill: 8 8           Plate: A A

Flop: 10 K K 

Turn: J

River: 5

Plate's total count was 131,000, and the chip leader would be knocked down by more than half, while Jim plate would take a grip on the chip lead with just over 268,000.
