Hear Me Roar!

From the button, Anthony Young puts the pressure on with a raise to 24,000. Scott Einiger makes the call from the small blind. Pia Jeppesen makes her move and pushes all in for 220,000. Young makes the call, and Einiger folds. The two remaining players turn up their hands:

Anthony Young: {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Pia Jeppesen: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

The board rags off entirely, coming {5?}{5?}{6?}{8?}{9?}, and Jeppesen rakes in a monster pot. Her new stack of 530,000 puts her squarely atop the leader board.
