Big stacks went head-to-head for a pot that decided who would take over the leader’s status. The hand kicked off with Flo Campomanes bumping it up to 130k and down the orbit, sb Adrian Esslen and bb Pham Van Trung called.
On the flop A♠ 3♣ 3♦, no bets came. On the 9♦ turn, action was checked to Campomanes who bet out 225k. Esslen called and Pham folded. On the 2♠ river, Esslen checked again, Campomanes bet 405k, and this time Esslen folded. Campomanes up to 4M and is looking like our chip leader at the moment with 18 players remaining.
