Big Stack Alert

With thousands of players in the field, it's hard to figure out what qualifies as a big stack. But four times the starting stack is doing pretty well at this point. That's how much Bernard Lee has. He called a preflop raise to 400 in late position with {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} and flopped the nut flush, {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}. He managed to get his opponent all in on the turn {J-Spades}. His opponent didn't have anything better than top pair with some straight and flush draws. He hit the rail with a river blank.
