David Erquiaga takes the lead


Another big pot to switch up the counts. From the button Villa raised to 200k and David Erquiaga flatted. At the flop 8 4 J, Villa with a c-bet of 300k, check-called by Erquiaga. On the turn 2, Villa continued to pump the pot with a 500k bet and Erquiaga quickly called to build a 2.1M pot. On the river 6, both players checked. Villa had 9 8 pair and was outkicked by Eruiaga’s K 8. Erquiaga shipped the big pot and is now chip leader.
