Million Chip Merrifield

Steven Merrifield has become our first player to breach the million-chip mark. He currently sits with about 1,050,000 after a preflop all in encounter with Lars Bonding.

Bonding: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Merrifield: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

The board came {10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and Merrifield was able to double up. This was a huge hit to Lars Bonding, who was once one of our chip leaders.
