LePeau Scores Massive Pot To Nearly Triple
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
With a board reading 
, Martin Smith had a bet of 6,500 in front of him from middle position. Action was back on him after Joel Verbeck shoved from his left, Lynn Hopkins called all in for less from the hijack, and Steve LePeau also called all in for less from the big blind.
Smith folded and it was time for the remaining three hands to be exposed.
Steve LePeau: 
Lynn Hopkins: 
Joel Verbeck: 
LePeau had flopped Broadway and was in need of fading outs to a chop or a full house from both of his opponents. The turn and river ran out clean, coming 
and he scored the huge pot to vault him to what is likely the chip lead with 32 players remaining.
