    The two biggest stacks in the WPT500 just collided in a massive pot, creating an overwhelming chip leader.

    Trevor Argue opened to 500,000 from under the gun, and Vasilios Gerontakos made the call from the big blind. Both players checked on the Ace of Clubs 5 of Hearts 9 of Clubs flop, and Vasilios lead for 1,200,000 when the 8 of Clubs peeled on the turn. Trevor replied with an all-in for 9,000,000 on the nose, forcing Vasilios into the tank.

    Having his opponent just barely covered, Vasilios ended up making the call, only to find out his set of 9 of Hearts 9 of Diamonds was in bad shape versus the set of Ace of Spades Ace of Hearts tabled by Trevor. The Queen of Diamonds was dealt on the river, and Trevor was awarded the nearly 20 million chip pot, putting him far ahead of the field. Vasilios was left with less than 800,000 after the hand.

    In an interesting turn of events, Vasilios was dealt Ace of Spades Ace of Hearts a few hands later, and doubled up versus a pair of 9 of Clubs 9 of Diamonds!

    In the mean time Fraddy Gonzalez was eliminated in 14th place, cashing $11,000 for his deep run.
