An absolutely huge hand went down between Gabe Patgorski and Devan Tang that saw the former's newly won chips find their way over to Tang's stack. We arrived in the aftermath but Patgorski was kind enough to give us all the gory details.

With 16,000 in the pot and the flop spread {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} all the chips went in and the cards were turned over. Patgorski had flopped the full house and Tang was drawing live with {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for the straight flush draw - with flushes beating a boat in this crazy game - and while the {6-Clubs} turn was not the spade the Hong Kong player needed the {a-Spades} was.

Tang climbed to over 2.2 million while Patgorski reloaded and fired for 100,000 the very next hand,but got no customers.

While this was going on there was another big pot playing out over on Phil Ivey's table with all the chips going in, in a three-way pot between Ivey, Romain Arnaud and Yueqine Zhou.

Phil Ivey: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Romain Arnaud: {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Yueqine Zhou: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs} {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to see Zhou bust, Ivey drop to 145,000 and Arnaud climbed to 350,000.
