Biggest Pot of the Tournament Induces Poker Coma

Adam White was sitting on 9,000 a little over an hour ago; he now sits on a staggering 681,000 chips!

At the start of this hand he had 331,000 and raised it to 15,000 from mid position. Dung Ho, in the small blind, three bet to 45,000. White then four bet it to 145,000, and Ho moved all in. White snap-called with {A-?} {A-?}. Ho was in deep trouble with {A-?} {Q-?}.

The board came {8-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {10-Spades} {7-Clubs}. The stacks were so big a floor person had to come over to count them down. It took over five minutes to do this, and all that while Ho sat there in shock with his mouth open. Eric Mizrachi commented that he was in a "poker coma".

After the count, he was left with 60,000 chips but soon got them in with ace-ten only to be busted by a player who call with pocket sevens.
