Here Comes Johnny!
Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden is not famous for outbursts of emotion but even he gave a little fist-pump when he scooped in the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
Radu Cantoiu opened the pot with a mid position raise that was called by Lodden on the button and Mark Herm in the big blind.
The flop fanned 
and Cantoiu continued for 100,000. Lodden bumped this up to 200,000 before Herm three-bet to 700,000. Cantoiu tanked for an age and folded (kings he later showed) but Lodden snap moved all in. Call!
LoddenL 
for a straight.
Herm: 
for top two pair.
