Roberts Gives Some Back
We opened this level by reporting that Mark Roberts is the new chip leader. We're pretty sure he still owns that title, but his stack just took a slight hit. With the board showing , the player in Seat 3 bet 5,200 out of the big blind and the player in Seat 4 raised to 16,400 directly behind. Roberts then moved all in, having both players easily covered, and the original bettor went into the tank. After at least a minute he let his hand go, and Seat 4 called instantly.

Roberts was in dire straits against top set but reminded his opponent that he could still make quads. He got halfway there when the hit the turn, but the on the river sent the entire pot over to his opponent. Roberts still boasts a monstrous stack of 123,000.
