Thai Ha Doubles Through Sam Snead to Take Chip Lead

A massive pot just played out on Table 1 that gave Thai Ha the chip lead.
Action was picked up on the turn, with the board reading [Tc6s5h3d] and Ryan Laplante checking from the small blind. Thai Ha also checked from the big and Sam Snead bet 250,000 from the button.
Laplante got out of the way and Ha called to see the [Ah] fall on the river.
Ha checked again and Snead – who had his opponent covered – moved all-in.
Ha took a quick inventory of his remaining 475,000~ and after a few more moments he called. Snead motioned that Ha’s call was good and it was, as he tabled [AdAs6h4h] for a rivered set.
Snead flashed his hand, but it was quickly sent into the muck – before the biggest pot of the night was sent Ha’s way.
