Chip counts...

Jason Dewitt 595000

Marc Tschirch 320000
Andrew Radel 310000
Eric Seidel 300000
Kyle Carlston 300000
Aaron Virchis 170000

WOW

huge sick pot

Radel, who had just moved up to 420000 raises from the sb, JP Kelly reraises from the bb to 90k, and Radel makes the call.

nearly 200k in the pot, and on the A 10 2 flop, Radel bets half the pot, and JP Kelly shoves all in.

Rdael makes a gutsy call with AQ, and JP Kelly tables 99 for a brave shove.

with 3 million chips in play, and 1 million chips in this pot, it's a huge huge pot.

a jack hits the turn, but the miracle 9 comes on the river, to eliminate 3rd placed Radel in 8th, and leave JP Kelly with a massive chip lead!
