![[user162117]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Keith Walker has been the quiet achiever here at the final table, but has now taken the chip lead. He recently won a small hand with a preflop raise and then went on to win a three-bet pot on a 
flop. Sam Razavi was his competitor during the hand in question, with Razavi opening the pot from the cutoff before Walker three-bet out of the small blind. Walker checked on the flop and then raised to 500,000 when Razavi bet 250,000. Razavi got out of the way and Walker raked in the pot.
