Lippert Lunges Into Chip Lead

We caught up to the action with the board reading {4-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. A player bet 10,500 into Adam Lippert who pushed out a raise to an unknown amount. Lippert's opponent replied by announcing that he was all in and Lippert shrugged before announcing a call, showing {J-Hearts}{10-Spades} for top pair with no diamond.

Lippert's opponent tabled {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for a diamond and the overcard as outs. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and Lippert was able to hit two pair on the river with the {10-Hearts}, ensuring his opponent's exit from the tournament.

From our counts Lippert is now the chip leader with about 370,000 in chips.
