I'm a Millionaire!

Yes indeed, Jacobo Fernandez is quietly, with the minimum of fuss, absolutely dominating this final table.

Greg Alston raised it to 35,000 in early position, and found himself called by Joe Tehan on the button and Fernandez on the small blind.

The flop came {2-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {9-Spades} and it checked around to Tehan who fired out 48,000. A surprise call from Fernandez, and Alston got out of the way.

They both checked the {10-Hearts} turn, and the river was a seemingly innocuous {4-Diamonds}. Fernandez now bet out a whopping 110,000. After a slight pause, Tehan called, and simply mucked when Fernandez turned over {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for the turned full house. Tehan dropped down to around 200,000, while Fernandez has just broken the million mark -- it's a big old stack, but we put him on around 1.1 million.
