Wow.

We have just seen the biggest pot in the tournament so far, and it’s been pushed to the overwhelming chip leader Shelby Lohrman. Lohrman raised it up preflop, and was called by Brian Freeman and Jared Griener.  The flop came down [7h][4s][2h], and Griener open shoved his last 200,000.

Lohrman thought it over for a few moments before shoving over the top, having everyone covered. Freeman tanked for over two minutes before standing up, letting out a deep breathe, and announcing a call!

Lohrman: [As][Ad]

Griener: [Js][9s]

Freeman: [Ah][Jh]

Lohrman was looking to dodge a heart to take a massive pot, and the [7s] on the turn gave Griener flush draw outs as well. However, the [7d] on the river sealed the deal, giving Lohrman the humongous pot, and getting us down to five.
