Kalb Hits Chip Lead Despite Domination

Jacob Kalb has assumed the mantle of our tournament chip leader after eliminating a player in a pot worth 380,000. We didn't catch the betting action but the chips were in preflop with Kalb in an ugly spot with {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} against an opponent's {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}.

However the board ran out {Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Kalb spikes a jack to take down the pot and move up to the top of the tree with 680,000 chips.
