Boivin Into the Lead
Level 22
: 17,500/35,000, 4,500 ante
A preflop raising war saw "7tHEcROw7" with a four-bet jam for 1,153,224 from under the gun and big stack Thomas "MarToMchat" Boivin instantly called in the hijack.
"7tHEcROw7": 
Thomas "MarToMchat" Boivin: 
It was essentially over on the 
flop as "7tHEcROw7" needed running diamonds or aces to avoid elimination. The 
turn locked things up for Boivin and that made the 
river a mere formality. Boivin took over the lead and became the first player above five million in chips.
