Sessum Wins a Monster, Takes Chip Lead

Maurice Sessum just knocked out two players in a wild preflop confrontation to win the biggest pot of the tournament thus far.

Jeff Joseph opened to 3,200 and Sessum three-bet to 7,700. Tom Sartori called, and Adam Greenly moved in for 17,600 from the blinds. Joseph folded, Sessum moved all in over the top and Sartori quickly called for his tournament life.
