Finger Wins Biggest Pot of the Tournament Thus Far to Eliminate Makhija & Lamb

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Martin Finger on Day 1.

A monster pot just went down at Table 452 that resulted in Amit Makhija and Ben Lamb hitting the rail. Not only that, it established a clear chip leader in Germany's Martin Finger, who won his first bracelet a couple weeks back.

We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that Makhija, who had about 340,000, ended up all in while Lamb and Finger created a sizable side pot. After the stacks were counted, Lamb ended up all in for 1.1 million while Finger had him covered by less than 100,000.

Finger: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Lamb: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Makhija: {q-}{q-}

Makhija got it in with the best hand, while Lamb was in the lead for the side pot. Unfortunately for them both, the {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop delivered Finger a king and the lead. Neither the {5-Diamonds} turn nor {7-Spades} river changed a thing and Finger scored the double elimination.

Meanwhile, Fabian Quoss was eliminated from the feature table by Gus Hansen in unknown action.
