The Dinner Hour Approaches

By the by, we've just discovered that there's going to be a dinner break at the end of this level. Unless of course it's all over by then, in which case it's going to be a lovely leisurely dinner for everyone concerned and could well spill over into tomorrow.

Juanda Retakes Lead

David Vamplew raised to 320,000 on the button but John Juanda made it a cool 1 million to play. Vamplew, who takes time with every hand, carefully counted out the chips and made the call.

The flop came {K-Spades} {7-Spades} {4-Clubs}.

Daniel Negreanu said on the commentary, "I think he's going to bet 1.4 million."

Juanda bet 1.35 million.

Nick Weathall to Negreanu, "You suck."

Vamplew released his hand and Juanda retakes the chip lead.

Juanda in Front

John Juanda made a raise to 325,000 from the button but David Vamplew stuck in a reraise to 875,000. Juanda eyed him up for a little while before just calling.

The flop came down {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Vamplew bet out 910,000. Again, there was some suspicious eyeing from Juanda, before he called again.

The turn came down the {10-Clubs} and Vamplew stared fixedly at the board for a while. He checked. Juanda bet 1.85 million, around half the pot, and Vamplew folded.

Juanda now has a fairly convincing lead over Vamplew - roughly three to two.

Vamplew Takes One Back

David Vamplew
David Vamplew

John Juanda raised to 325,000 preflop and David Vamplew made the call.

The flop of {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {8-Hearts} was checked by both players, before Vamplew fired out 415,000 on the {J-Spades} turn. Juanda quickly called but then folded just as fast on the {3-Clubs} river when Vamplew fired in a 1.05 million bet.

Still, this battle is simmering nicely.

Check-Raise-Fold for Juanda

David Vamplew min-raised, as he does almost every turn he gets with the button, and John Juanda called to see a {2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop. Juanda checked and Vamplew bet 340,000, around half the pot. To which Juanda responded by check-raising to 1 million.

Back to Vamplew who paused for a moment, before reraising to a little over 2 million - and an insta-fold later, Vamplew took the pot.
