Million Chip Pot on Final Hand of Night
Every other table in the field had already bagged their chips and gone home for the night, but action was still happening over on table 94.
There was already over 150,000 in the pot and a board reading . The cutoff had already moved all in and gotten called by the Vincent Lam in late position, and from the big blind. The big blind also jammed, for 427,000 more than the cutoff's, and the action was now on Lam to make the call.
Lam tanked for a few minutes, before telling his opponent "You're pretty good at Hollywooding," and pushing all his chips into the middle, with both of his opponents covered narrowly.
Cutoff:
Big Blind:
Vincent Lam:
Lam had the best of it with his pair of eights. The river was a safe one for him, and he scooped the massive 1,000,000 chip pot on the last hand of the night, giving him a sizeable chip lead entering Day 2.
