Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Welcome to the match, Andrej Vinogrodskij!

We didn't see much of this pot, only walking up when the drama was already over, really. The board showed {6-Hearts} {9-Spades} {8-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {7-Hearts}, though, and there was already about 70,000 in the pot when the betting action exploded. Vinogrodskij got himself all in for another 98,300, and Gustavo Kein was right there with the matching amount to put an enormous pot up for grabs. We could see Vinogrodskij's {5-Clubs} {7-Clubs} laying face-up on the table as the winning hand, and the floorman was laboriously counting out the big double up. If our Spanish is any good, it sounds like Kein flopped top set with pocket nines, but that cooler has robbed him of nearly everything.

Vinogrodskij is now in a challenge for the chip lead, sitting pretty with about 270,000 now.
