Ross Takes Overwhelming Chip Lead

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Josh Ross Stacking Chips
Josh Ross Stacking Chips

Two of the chip leaders just went head-to-head for a pot worth more than 300,000, and Josh Ross finished on top. We walked over to Table 3 to see Ross and Bob Koentegen staring at a board of {4-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Koentegen was standing in disbelief as he was the victim of a set-over-set situation; Koentegen's {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} was no good against Ross' {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} after all the chips went in on the flop.

Ross now boasts a massive stack of 330,000, while Koentegen was crippled down to 5,000.
