Massive Cooler Propels Carlson Into the Chip Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Mitchell Lehman raised to 650,000 from the cutoff, and Dennis Carlson three-bet to 1,650,000 from the small blind. Lehman made the call.
The dealer spread a Q♦5♣9♦ flop, and Carlson fired a bet of 1,000,000. Lehman quickly called.
The turn brought the 10♦, and Carlson moved all in for roughly 12,000,000. Lehman took some time before making the call.
“Do you have the flush?” Carlson asked. “No,” Lehman replied. Neither player had a flush, but it was a set over set situation.
Dennis Carlson: Q♥Q♦ 
Mitchell Lehman: 9♥9♣
The river 2♥ was of no consequence. Carlson dragged in a gigantic pot and is now the chip leader.
