Lamb Wins Monster

Ben "Benba" Lamb opened to 170,000 from the hijack seat, and Guillaume Darcourt three-bet to 440,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Lamb who slid out a massive tower of green T25,000 chips, re-raising to 1.1 million total. Darcourt called, and the dealer fanned {10-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

Lamb tanked for nearly two minutes before sliding out 1.2 million chips. Darcourt reached for a stack of lavender T100,000 chips, and put out 2.2 million, which wasn't enough for an official raise. Darcourt quickly tossed out two more lavender chips, making in 2.4 million, and the action was back on Lamb. Lamb moved all in for his last 4.5 million, and Darcourt angrily mucked his hand.

Lamb pulled in the monster pot, pushing his stack to over 11 million chips.
