Daniel Charrette (Joliette, Quebec, Canada)
Daniel Charrette (cutoff) got all-in for 1,782,000 against David Jackson (sb). David was ahead with {qs}{qd} but was racing against Daniel’s {Ah}{KH}.
The flop fell {Qh}{5s}{3h} giving David a set, but also giving Daniel a flush draw. When the {jh} landed on the turn Daniel completed his flush and actually picked up a Royal draw. That didn’t matter to David, who needed he board to pair to take the pot.
The river was the {tc} however, and Daniel doubled up to ~4 million and claimed the chip lead. David was left with about 1.1 million.
The General has a little more than 3 million, Jake Schwartz has about 1.4 million, and Dan Buzgon has roughly 1.25 million.
