"Freshmannn" Skyrockets Into the Lead
Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante
At the end of the previous level, "Freshmannn" raised to 21,000 and picked up three callers in "VICTOR TXR1" out of the cutoff, Jerry "Perrymejsen" Odeen on the button and "laurajayne1705" in the small blind.
After the 
flop, "laurajayne1705", who had started the hand more than 100 big blinds deep, made it 52,000 to go. "Freshmannn" raised to 160,000 and that forced one fold. Odeen however called and "laurajayne1705" reraised to 268,000.
"Freshmannn" moved all in to fold out Odeen, but "laurajayne1705" called to create the largest pot of the tournament to date.
Both had flopped a set and "Freshmannn" held with jacks to take over the lead by some margin.
