Al Krux started the 2018 Winter Poker Open strong running up a top stack late in one of the opening flights in the $570/$300K. It wasn’t meant to be, though, as he ran his pair and a flush draw into the top set of fellow big stack Joseph Orsino. The pot was worth a pile of chips and the duo got it all in the middle. Krux bricked the turn and river and Orsino won the pot crossing 700,000 chips and taking a massive chip lead to Day 2.

Krux fell short there, but is rolling again in Flight C of this $350. He claims one of the largest stacks in the room with just under 80,000 late in Level 6.
