Sukhorukov Jams Into Cohen; Romero on Half a Million

Joining the action on the turn with 75,000 in the middle, Dmitrii Sukhorukov moved all in and Bruno Cohen had a decision for his last 55,000. Cohen carefully counted his stack and eventually folded to forfeit a vital pot for his stack size.

One table over, James Romero sits behind a massive tower of chips and admitted "just playing really well" with a smile on the face. Romero has taken over the lead by some margin as the bubble for Day 1a is slowly but surely coming closer, only 67 players remain.
