Monsterpotten!

Clement Thumy opened with a raise to 33,000 in early position, and Blair Rodman called on down the line. In the big blind, Peter Jetten announced a reraise to 130,000 straight, and the decision was back on Thumy. After a minute or two of consideration, he made it 233,000 total, enough to quickly fold Rodman out of the way. Thumy announced an all in, though, and Jetten called to put a pot of nearly a million chips up for grabs.

Showdown
Thumy: {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades}
Jetten: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}

Both players stood up and strolled around behind their chairs in anticipation of a game-changing board. "I'd love to win this filp," Jetten said flatly. "That would be really cool."

Board: {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {7-Hearts}

That's really cool for Jetten who doubles his way all the way up to 967,000. For Thumy, it's not quite as cool, and that big hit takes him back to 525,000, still doing okay for the time being.
