Nardin Busts Petrangelo and Jacobson in Massive Pot

What a day for Romain Nardin! The French online wizard started the day with 35,500, just seven big blinds. Compare that to Nick Petrangelo, who started the day as the chipleader with 562,000. After two levels however, the Frenchman is in charge and Petrangelo is out of the tournament.

After a raise to 11,500, Martin Jacobson three-bet to 40,000, nearly all his remaining chips. Petrangelo flat-called the reraise, Nardin put in a four-bet and Jacobson called with his remaining stack.

Petrangelo wasn't done yet, as the American tournament crusher five-bet shoved all in for 350,000. Nardin wasn't backing down and called Petrangelo's shove, suddenly creating the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
