We saw one of the chip leaders, Vinh Ho, standing up and wishing the rest of the table luck. Rushing over to the table we saw Tim Chocklett stacking Ho's chips and players at the table recounted the hand. The flop came {A-}{A-}{K-} and there was a bet by Chocklett and a call from Ho. The turn was a {6-} and the chips would get all in with Ho holding {A-}{9-} for trip aces which was crushed by the {K-}{K-} Chocklett held. Ho could still win with another ace, nine, or six but the river bricked out to send him to the rail and ship the massive pot to Chocklett.

Chocklett stacked 450,000 in chips, which is over 10% of the chips in play with 47 players remaining.
