Sharman Olshan got three-streets of value out of Thomas Mader after flopping a set of jacks.

Mader claimed two queens at the time, but that's since changed to pocket aces. It makes no difference to Olshan, who has most of his chips now.

She's also got a spot among the early leaders and sweatshirt that says "May The Bridges I Burn Light My Way."

Mader's got a spot on one of those smoldering and quickly collapsing bridges and he could be ringing the reentry bell before long.
