Nigel Murray (Miami Gardens, FL)

At the halfway point of Level 6, Nigel Murray was the recipient of a massive pot, after flopping broadway on a board of A♥ K♥ Q♣.  After a player to be unnamed and Dolphus Powers checked to Murray, he'd fire out a flop bet.  The unnamed player then check-raised to 18,000, with Powers then shoving behind.  Murray then announced himself all-in, having both players covered once the call was made, and the cards were turned over:

Flop: A♥ K♥ Q♣

Murray: J♥ 10♠

Player X: A♦ K♦

Powers: A♠ Q♦

Turn: 9♣ 

River: 10♥

Neither of Murray's opponents would improve to a full house, sealing the win and shipping over a sizable pot his way (over 80,000).  Murray is over 130,000 a the midway point of Level 6, and is the chip leader as players get ready for their scheduled dinner break (5:35-6:35pm).
