Graham Extends Chip Lead
Nível 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Andrew Graham, Hang Zheng and one more player were on the turn on a board that read 8♥2♥8♣9♦. There was already a big pot of 27,000 brewing and the action checked to Graham on the button. He put in 16,500 more chips and Zheng made the call from early position.
The other player was on the cutoff and took a while to think before eventually the clock was called on him. Near the end of the countdown, he mucked his cards and the 7♥ river was dealt.
Graham and Zheng subsequently checked quickly, with Zheng opening his A♠A♦ first. His rockets were not good enough, however, when Graham tabled A♦8♦ for flopped trips.
Another big pot was sent Graham's way and he is playing nearly six starting stacks in the final hour of Day 1b.
