A player walked by us standing near another table, and we overheard him saying to a friend something along the lines of "I just ran kings into aces preflop for the chip lead." We went to investigate his table, and sure enough, we saw Brandon "The Romantic" Yu stacking up a wave of big chips. Once he stacked it all up, we pegged his satack at 480,000, which is more then 200,000 clear of the rest of the field!

Even crazier, we were told that on the big hand, one player at the table folded queens and another folded Ace-King!
