Big Stacks Collide
Play resumed after a short break in Level 31 and it saw the two biggest stacks collide.
Andres Korn, who started the hand with 9,750,000, raised 425,000 with 6♦6♣ while under the gun. After action folded around the table, Girish Reknar, who had 10,480,000, called in the big blind with J♥10♥.
The dealer fanned J♣10♠6♥, a board that gave Reknar top two pair and Korn bottom set. Reknar checked, Korn bet 725,000 and Reknar called.
The turn saw 9♥ on the board, opening a flush draw for Reknar, who checked. Korn fired a second barrel of 1,275,000, and Reknar called. The river produced K♣, putting a possible straight on the board.
Rekar checked a third time, only to see Korn make a small 1,000,000 bet. Reknar made the call and Korn turned over his hand to show the set. Reknar tabled his hand to show what he had as the 7,150,000 pot was pushed to Korn, who took over as the chip leader.
