Another Huge One for Sass
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 100 ante
Alan Sass just won another huge pot, this time through the chip leader Andrew Gaw. Update coming shortly!
A King For Sass Turns Things Around
The cards were turned on their backs when we arrived on the scene. And it wasn't looking good for Alan Sass. After the hand was over we found out that Sass had called a five-bet from chip leader Andrew Gaw after he had put in a four-bet himself. The flop showed 
and Sass moved all in after Gaw had put in a 35,000-chip bet. Gaw called creating a monsterpot!
Alan Sass: 
Andrew Gaw: 
The turn brought out the 
and Sass hit his set. On the river the 
showed up and Sass raked in a massive pot.
"So lucky," Sass sighed as he was pushed the biggest pot of the tournament so far. "I guess I can't complain about bad luck in tournaments anymore," he added. Gaw took a big hit but still remains in the top ten.

Marchese Down and Out
Today wasn't Tom Marchese's day by any means. The young pro who already has close to four million in career live tournament earnings started out with 135,000, but nothing is left of that healthy stack.
On Marchese's final hand he ran 
into Team PokerStars Pro Angel Guillen's pocket eights. No help for Marchese who was knocked out, and Guillen added some much needed chips to his stack.
