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.
