Noce Overtakes the Chip Lead
Niveau 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Eric Bunch opened the action from under the gun with a raise to 135,000. It then folded to Rob Noce in the big blind who three-bet, before Bunch four-bet to put Noce all in for 2,100,000, which Noce called to put himself at risk.
Rob Noce: K♠Q♥ 
Eric Bunch: A♥J♠
It was a massive pot and fair fight with Bunch ahead with his ace high. The 2♠2♣J♥ flop extended the lead for Bunch, but the Q♣ on the turn put Noce in the lead with just one card to go. The river was the 8♥ and Noce had the best hand with his pair of queens to double up and overtake the chip lead from Bunch.
