Pelton Soars to the Top
Level 27
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Brandon Kelzenberg opened under the gun for 200,000 and was called by Ben Hanson from the hijack before Chan Pelton three-bet to 700,000 from the button.
Action folded back to Kelzenberg who four-bet to 1.7 million and Hanson quickly released his hand while Pelton jammed for 3,910,000.
Kelzenberg snap-called and the two players tabled their hands.

Pelton picked-up aces at the perfect time and the runout secured his double-up, making him the new chip leader.
