Lee Childs
Sitting on 17.7 million in chips, Lee Childs stepped away from the table to high-five his dad. Lee picked up a marker and wrote a secret on the palm of his father's hand -- "I had the nuts."

Lee's dad, who is such a nice man, leaned over and said "My son is in the zone. I'm so proud of him!"
