Sarnoff's Hero Call Puts Him Among Chip Leaders
Ben Sarnoff started the day as chipleader, and has had one of the biggest stacks of the field all day. After Kathy Liebert pulled ahead around the dinner break, Sarnoff has made up considerable ground.
Andy Finkelberg opened for 400,000 from the button. Sarnoff, the big blind, was the only caller.
On the 
flop, Sarnoff checked to Finkelberg who continued for 300,000. Sarnoff made the call.
The 
turn was checked through before the button jammed on the 
river for 2,600,000. Sarnoff took a few minutes to make his decision, but eventually found the call.
"Good call," Finkelberg told him before any cards had flipped. He turned over 
, good for just jack high with the paired board. Sarnoff showed 
, good for two pair on the river. Another series of "Good call" comments came both others at the table and a few spectators from the rail.
