Montois Puts Daniels Under Pressure Before Break to Take Chip Lead
Shawn Daniels raised to 6,000,000 from the button and Julien Montois defended.
The flop came 10♠Q♥2♠, Montois check-called the 8,000,000 continuation-bet of Daniels.
The turn was the 3♣ and Montois checked again. This time, Daniels fired out a bet of 17,500,000. Montois called.
The Q♠ completed the board on the river and Montois checked for the final time. Daniels barreled a bet of 43,000,000 over the line and Montois responded with a shove. Daniels asked for a count and the dealer confirmed Montois had 71,275,000 in front of him. Daniels looked pained and dove into the tank.
"I wasn't planning on bet-folding," Daniels commented. He then cut out calling chips before adding: "You looked so sad, and then you jammed!"
He took some more time before reluctantly pushing his cards over the line for the fold. Montois' rail cheered loudly before the two players decided to take a 15-minute break.
