Oya and Beresford Battle for Chip Lead
Roman Samoylov started the action with a minraise to 12,000 from under the gun. In the next seat over, Masashi Oya put in a three-bet to 35,000 before Beresford made it 80,000 to go from the cutoff. Samoylov did not like what he had caused and folded. Following, Oya put forward all his time bank chips but the dealer only needed to take one off the stack before he put in the call.
The four-bet pot between two of the big stacks then saw a flop of 8♠3♠2♥. Beresford continues his aggression with a small continuation-bet of 45,000, which Oya check-called.
Oya checked again on the 9♥ turn and Beresford now put a whopping 150,000 chips in the middle. Again, Oya laid down all of his white time bank chips in front of him. And again, the dealer took only one before Oya made his decision. This time, he announced an all-in.
Beresford looked appalled, peeked at his cards once or twice, and tried to quickly count his chips. Before his allocated 30 seconds were over, he made the fold. Beresford is down to just under an average stack, while Oya now has the biggest one in the room.
