Big Stax 500 (Day 2): Pahuja Assumes The Chip Lead

Level 22 (Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000)
Total Entries: 925
Players Remaining: 46

Vinny Pahuja (New York, NY)
Table 49 just hosted the largest pot of the tournament, as Jonathan Borenstein and Vinny Pahuja get in 928,000 each pre-flop.  Pahuja was the final aggressor, four bet shoving, with Borestein making the call and having Vinny covered:

Pahuja: A♣ Q♠
Borenstein: A K♠

Flop: A 7 4♠
Turn: Q♠
River: 3♠

Jonathan couldn't believe what unfolded on the turn, as he turned away and released some anger.  He'd have to sit and watch as the dealer cut 928,000 from his stack, leaving him with 470,000 after absorbing the loss.  While Vinny would chip up to 1,870,000 with the pot, Borenstein would be eliminated only a few hands later, running jacks into the aces of David Datashvili.
