Two chip leaders. 190k pot.

Flop A72 two spades. Dave checks. Josh checks also. Turn offsuit 5. Dave bets 100k. Josh calls.
River 7, Dave fills up. He bets 150k, Josh instacalls and Dave takes the 690k pot.

Danny has J6 UTG and he mucks. Josh folds, Phil has A3 and raises to 70k. Chris mucks, Dave has 55 and asks Phil how much he has left, Phil says 450k. Dave calls. Brandon mucks. Heads up pot, 182k.

Flop T42 two diamonds. Dave checks and Phil bets 105k. Dave moves in and Phil mucks. He's now the short stack after losing a third of his stack.

They've done it before. The WSOP itself is so significant that they kind of have to - but they won't be telling you to check out ESPN's spectacular coverage.
