Jason Hartman is back!

Jason Hartman
The man who looks like he could take a leg drop from Hulk Hogan, may have dropped off the radar in the past few levels, but he is back where he feels he belongs; at the top.

We just saw him eliminate two players to move his stack to the 180,000 mark. We joined the action late in the first elimination. It was a hand against Roman Szymonowicz that handed Hartman the chip lead. The dealer was scooping the board up when we arrive, but we believe Szymonowicz moved all-in on the river in a four-bet pot, representing trip kings and Hartman was sat holding that very hand.

Then there was an open shove for 8,750 and Hartman called. The shover held [Jd] [8c] and Hartman [As] [5h] The flop put the shover into the lead – [Jc] [Th] [7d] – but the [Ah] on the turn restored balance to the poker world, and after the [3d] on the river ended the action, Hartman was up to 180,000.
