Feldman Takes Big Lead

Being the early chip leader is no guarantee for a deep run, but someone with Joel Feldman's skills must have a clear advantage with a 50,000-chip stack heading into the third level of the day.

Feldman just raised pre flop and got three callers. The flop brought out and Feldman bet 1,000. One opponent called after which Luke McLean raised it up to 3,000. The action was back on Feldman who called this raise. The third player then moved all in for about 17,000 chips. McLean tanked for a long time, but eventually laid his hand down.

Feldman didn't seem sure what to do, while his opponent sat there waiting with a smile on his face. After a while Feldman did make the call, and the showdown was as following.
