Brian Arbaugh is the new leader.
Brian Arbaugh is the new leader.

In the last hand of Level 22, James Wilson opened for 34,000 under the gun, and Brian Arbaugh three-bet to 82,000 on the button. Wilson called, and the two saw a {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. Wilson led out for 125,000, and Arbaugh made it 290,000. Wilson called, seeing a {3-Spades} turn. He checked, and Arbaugh announced he was all in. Wilson asked for a count, and it was 483,000. Wilson cut out the required amount, thought for about three minutes, and then slid the stack forward to create the biggest pot of the tournament yet.

Wilson: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Arbaugh: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Arbaugh's kings were good but he had some outs to fade. A red card hit the felt, but it was the {9-Hearts}, Arbaugh exhaled.
