Thurlow Takes the Chip Lead

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Gennady Shimelfarb saw action folded to him in the small blind and raised to 125,000. Justin Thurlow defended his big blind and the flop fell {7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. Shimelfarb made a continuation-bet of 150,000, which Thurlow called.

Shimelfarb checked the turn {2-Clubs} and Thurlow bet 150,000. Shimelfarb called. Both players then checked the river {j-Spades} to take the hand to showdown.

Shimelfarb announced an ace and Thurlow showed {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top pair, causing Shimelfarb to muck his hand. With the pot, Thurlow has now overtaken the chip lead and finds himself with a stack just shy of 3 million in chips.
