Uber Mega Ultra Pot

Well, in so far as limit hold'em can produce such things. Biggest pot of the tournament so far, anyway.

Chad Brown raised in early position and Soheil Shamseddin called on the button. Over to Matt Hawrilenko in the big blind who re-popped, two calls, and a flop.

Flop: {2-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

Hawrilenko bet out and was met with a reraise from Brown. Shamseddin called -- and then Hawrilenko three-bet. Two calls, and a turn.

Turn: {5-Spades}

Hawrilenko bet out again, but his opponents backed off a little -- they just called this time.

River: {6-Spades}

Once more Hawrilenko bet out and Brown now passed; Shamseddin called though, and mucked when Hawrilenko turned over pocket {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}.

Hawrilenko: up to 585,000.
