Lawrence Jacobs came in raising to 4,000, and Brian Senie and Dan Heimiller both called in position. From the button, Chad Brown squeezed in a reraise to 20,000, and Jacobs and Heimiller would fold. Senie, though, reraised all in over the top, and Brown called off the remaining ~70,000 of his chips to put himself at risk. He was racing.

Showdown
Senie: {J-Spades} {J-Hearts}
Brown: {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}

Brown needed to find a card, but he could not catch up as the board ran {K-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {8-Spades} to send him on his way. With that pot, Senie jumps out to a big chip lead with 370,000 chips piled in front of him.

Jejelowo Busts Ramage in Huge Pot

In a battle of the blinds, AJ Jejelowo kicked off the action with a raise to 4,200 from the small. Grayson Ramage raised to 10,300 from the large, but Jejelowo came right back over the top with a four-bet to about 28,000. Ramage five-bet shoved for 82,500 after the dealer told Jejelowo the exact amount, he called.

Ramage: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Jejelowo: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

The {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop was a pretty good one for Ramage, giving him extra outs. However, the {7-Spades} hit the turn and locked up pot for Jejelowo. The {8-Spades} was merely a formality as Ramage graciously wished the table good luck as he exited.

More For Senie

Brian Senie opened to 4,000 from the cutoff and Dan Heimiller three-bet to 10,000 on the button. The blinds folded, Senie called, and the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.

Both checked to see the {7-Clubs} turn. Again both checked, leading to the {4-Clubs} river. Senie bet 16,000 and Heimiller called, clearly upset with himself when he saw Senie table {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} for a flush. Heimiller flashed {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} as Senie collected the chips.

Kaverman Holed Up

Level 13 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

Byron Kaverman shoved his last 17,500 chips in before the flop with {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}, and he was poised to double up as AJ Jejelowo made the call with {3-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}. Kaverman's hand was superior only until the {7-Spades} {3-Spades} {6-Diamonds} flop, though, and he could not catch up on the {4-Hearts} turn or {7-Hearts} river.

Two outs are enough for Jejelowo, knocking Kaverman out in 27th place.

Too Many Outs for Jacobs

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On a {5-Spades} {J-Spades} {8-Hearts} flop, Jeremiah Vinsant got all 42,100 of his chips into the middle with {10-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}. He was the one doing the shoving, and Lawrence Jacobs made the call with {6-Spades} {7-Spades} and chips to chase his big draw.

The turn {3-Hearts} was a blank to keep Vinsant in the lead, and the river {Q-Hearts} secured his double up. He's closing in on 100,000 after dragging that big pot, while Jacobs falls back to about 65,000.
