Rosenthal Runs Away With Chip Lead

Jaymes Rosenthal is now our runaway chip leader after taking down another massive pot in a preflop confrontation. In fact, he has such a big lead he could probably take the rest of the evening off and still come back tomorrow with the lead.

With all the chips in preflop, Rosenthal tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} but was in deep trouble against his opponent's {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}.

That is, until the board was cruelly spread {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. The turn gave Rosenthal a Broadway straight, as he sings and dances all the way to a massive 580,000 chips - more than double the amount of the second largest stack in the room according to our current counts.
