Brown Becomes the Big Stack
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
A player in middle position opened to 8,000, and Jonathan Brown three-bet to 23,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to him, the middle position player called, and they headed to the flop.
The middle position player checked the Q♣8♠5♦ flop, and Brown bet out for 21,000. The middle position player called.
Once it checked to him on 9♦ turn, Brown bet 43,000. This was met by an immediate check-raise all in by the middle position player. After some thought, Brown made the call for his last 113,000 chips.
Jason Brown: A♦Q♥ 
Middle Position: 6♦6♣
The 9♣ came on the river, and Brown became one of the tournament chip leaders.
