Bob Bass (Florida)

Passing Table 9, we'd see Bob Bass all-in for 21,000 on a board reading A♣ K♦ 9♠ 7♣, with Gary Fitzgerald contemplating a call.  Fitzgerald, who is one of the current chip leaders, reluctantly tossed in the chips for a call.  Bass would turn over A♠ J♦, with his kicker dominating the A♦ 6♦ of Fitzgerald.  Bobby was able to fade Gary's win/chop outs, and ended up doubling through, now over 70,000.  Even after absorbing the loss, Fitzgerald still sits with close to double the chip average (which sits at 64,000).

Gary Fitzgerald - 123,000

Bobby Bass - 73,000
