Lerner Leaps to 100,000

Aaron Lerner just doubled up and appears to be the chip leader heading into the break.

The pot was raised to 750 by an early-position player and was three-bet to 2,200 by a middle-position player. Aaron Lerner popped it to 10,000 in late position and the original raiser folded. The three-bettor shoved all in and Lerner called immediately. He held {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and got it in for 43,575 against his opponent's {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Lerner vaulted to about 90,000.

On the last hand of the level, Lerner busted an opponent. The board read {J-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades} and it was checked to Lerner on the river. He bet enough to put his opponent all in and after a short tank, his opponent called for the rest of his stack. Lerner tabled {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for a flush and his opponent couldn't beat it.

He is up to 107,000.
