Ladies and Gentlemen, We Have a New Chip Leader
Alberto Cerutti raised to 27,000 from the hijack only to find Francisco Neto three-bet to 60,000 on the button. The small blind folded his hand and Juan Garcia peered at his cards, waited a moment, a pushed out a four-bet to 120,000. Cerutti folded and Neto replied to Garcia by making a five-bet, this time making 220,000 the magic number.
Garcia announced a six bet all in and Neto went into the tank for over two minutes before announcing a call.
Garcia: 
Neto: 
Neto was far behind and was searching for a miracle card after the 
flop. Ask for a miracle and you shall received, replied the deck as the 
dropped on the turn. A stunned Garcia stared at the board as he watched his tournament life crumble around him. The 
came on the river and Neto was awarded the largest pot of the tournament. Not only is Neto the first player over a million, but he's closer to two million chips than one million. Garcia, however, was left absolutely devastated with only 46,000.
