Guilbert Takes Chip Lead Again
It’s turning into a back-and-forth affair at the final table between Johan Guilbert and Antonio Galiana.
Galiana had Guilbert reeling, but two previous double ups have kept Guilbert alive.
Make it a third, and this one swung the chip lead.
Galiana raised with A♥9♥, and Guilbert elected to flat with J♠J♣ to bring the flop. The dealer fanned 3♥10♦5♠ on the board, resulting in Galiana betting 1,000,000. Guilbert responded with a 2,500,000 check-raise, which Galiana called.
The turn brought 6♥ on the board, and Guilbert moved all in. Galiana appeared anguished by the move and placed his chin on the rail while shuffling chips. He then brought his head up, looked into his stack and eventually made the call to put Guilbert at risk.
The 4♣ appeared on the river, giving Guilbert the win. And with it, the chip lead.
