Rochester, NY's Peter Vogelaar has jumped into the mix here, making some big hands to close in on 100,000.

He got heaps in with bottom set versus top two pair and held to get above seventy thousand, then flopped aces and queens getting two streets of value before forcing a river fold to push past 90,000.

Vogelar dropped about 6,000 of that a few hands later getting pushed off a pot on a {4-Spades}{a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} board, but still sits among the leaders now, well into Level 7.
