The Main Event is of course a re-entry event, and it is not uncommon to see big guns fire off their barrel to try to run up the board early. Mike Leah and Darryll Fish, two players with impressive resumes – over 10M in earnings by the two of them – just bumped into each other.
When we got to the table, the turn was out and a few 100K chips were in the pot. Leah bet 150K, and Fish raised him all-in rather quickly, for an effective 800K. Leah didn’t think for too long, and called him off with ace high!

Fish, fresh off a WPT win in January, is already working with a double stack, while Super High Roller final tableist Chance Kornuth was shoulder to shoulder with Darren Elias, but lost his first bullet, and he is now doing his thing on a new table with fresh chips.
