David Peters Has All the Chips; Lew and Cygan Eliminated

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In-credible.

In the biggest setup of the tournament, David Peters has scooped up a pot of over 1 million chips and ascended to a monster chip lead, taking all of Lukasz Cygan's and Randy Lew's in the process. The action started with Cygan opening to 10,000 in middle position and Lew calling from the cutoff.

David Peters three-bet to 45,000 from the small blind and Cygan called. Then, everything went haywire. Back on Lew, he opted to move all in for 323,000, which brought the action back to Peters who also shoved.

Cygan was visibly displeased with the situation at hand but couldn't get away from it. He called it off after ten seconds for his total stack of 420,000 to create the monster pot.

Randy Lew: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Lukasz Cygan: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
David Peters: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

It was the mother of all setups and Peters found himself in a dream spot. The board stayed low and ran out {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} to end Cygan and Lew's tournament life on the spot. Lew shook Peters hand, while Cygan just walked away in disbelief over what just happened.

Peters soared to a huge stack worth 1.6 million, double the amount of his nearest challenger.
