A gift from the poker gods has vaulted Joseph Abdoulnour into the chip lead now.

He went three ways to an {8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{k-Spades} flop and after one check, led out for 4,200. Victor Chen bumped it to 21,200 and only Abdoulnour called. He then shoved 12,300 at the {8-Clubs} turn and Chen snap-called with the {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} full house.

Abdoulnour held {a-Clubs}{8-Spades} and it looked like he was on the wrong end of a cooler until the {k-Clubs} river card came down and made him a bigger boat.

Abdoulnour doubled close to 80,000 and Chen was left on life support.
