Jeremy O'Brien just jumped into the chip leader's chair busting a player in rather exciting fashion.

He bet 6,000 into a pot of about the same size before his heads-up opponent pushed all in for 12,000 more on a {k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades} board. O'Brien got the count and made the call with {a-Spades}{3-Hearts} and was well behind his opponent's {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}.

The river can change things fast, however, and it did when the {3-Spades} was revealed, giving O'Brien trips and sending his opponent home.
