Delaney Takes Over the Chip Lead

Ben Delaney
Ben Delaney
Ben Delaney was pegged yesterday by some in the Crown Poker Room as the player who would win this tournament. He's on his way after a three-way pot with James Broom and Clint Jordanou. Delaney opened for 12,000 from middle position and was called by Jordanou and Broom out of the blinds. Action checked to Delaney on a flop of {K-Spades} {8-Clubs} {5-Clubs}. He made it 14,000 to go, folding Jordanou. Broom then check-raised all in and was snap-called by Delaney.

Broom: {9-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}
Delaney: {5-Hearts} {5-Diamonds}

The turn fell {A-Diamonds}, making Delaney's set of fives a lock to win the hand. He's up to 174,000.

The next hand, Broom, left with approximately 25,000 chips, doubled up in a battle of the blinds. He open-raised all in with {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} and was called by Jason White, who showed {A-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. Neither player improved.
