First to a Milly, and to 1.2 Also


Chase Bianchi opens for 15,000 and the player in the hijack shoves for 133,000. Drazen Ilich (above) calls from the BB, then Bianchi overshoves for almost 400,000, Ilich and snap-calls, having Bianchi well-covered.

This is the first million-chip-pot of the tournament, folks.

Shortstack - Kc Kc
Ilich - Kc Kc
Bianchi - Kc Kc

All this was told to me by Michael Esquivel, Aaron Thomas and one other, folks, who were all gathered at the table. I showed up as the chips were being pushed to the winner, but here's how the crew says it went down.

Bianchi flopped a flush draw
The turn was a blank
The river 6 was NOT a spade

The short stack is eliminated
Bianchi is eliminated

Ilich is to 1,210,000 - 600,000 CLEAR of second place.

This took so long to write up - and count down the stack - that we opted to post is as the first hand back from break, even though it was the final hand BEFORE break ...

Level - 18
Blinds - 3000/6000
Antes - 1000
Players Left - 61
