Mitchell Scoops First Pot of the Day
Level 36
: 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
After a chop between Biagio Morciano and Kathy Liebert, who was nearly blinded out for the first hand, we get to the action between Charles Mitchell and Ben Sarnoff.
Mitchell opened from the hijack for 1,300,000 and Sarnoff defended his big blind.
Both players tapped the table on the 
flop.
The 
arrived on the turn and Sarnoff fired for 800,000. Mitchell called.
On the 
river, Sarnoff checked and Mitchell fired out a bet of 1,200,000. While Sarnoff thought about his decision, one of his chips fell out of his hand and rolled towards the pot. "Even the chips want me to make the call," Sarnoff said as he put in the 1,200,000.
Mitchell turned over 
and it was good enough for the win.
