Mark Roberts did not win the trophy in this photo, but he did just take down a massive three-way all-in pot to jump into a spot at the top of the counts with 25 players left in this Day 1c flight.

The hand started with a Roberts early-position raise to 1,800. The cutoff called and John Stempien made it 6,100 on the button. The small blind pushed all in for 12,000 and Roberts piled it in for 31,000 behind him. The cutoff called all in for his 27,000, Stempien folded and the cards were flipped on their backs:

Small Blind: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Roberts: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Cutoff: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The small blind was a favorite with Roberts and the cutoff on pretty much the same hand. It wasn't the same hand though, and Roberts four flushed on the river with his {a-Spades} to scoop following the {5-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} run out.
