Sydenstricker Doesn't Back Down, Takes the Chip Lead
Niveau 35
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Simon Wiciak raised to 800,000 with 10♦6♦ and João Sydenstricker came along in the big blind holding A♦5♠.
Sydenstricker hit top pair on the 4♠A♣9♣ flop and check-called a bet of 900,000 from Wiciak. The turn came the 8♦ and Wiciak bet another 2,700,000.
Sydenstricker again called to the 9♦ river and checked. Wiciak tapped the felt and surrendered the pot as Sydenstricker took the pot and the chip lead early in their heads-up battle.
