Ogura Closes the Gap to Ewe
Level 20
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Eng Soon Ewe made it 200,000 to go with the 10♠10♥ and Takashi Ogura flat-called from one seat over on the button with A♥8♥.
The J♥9♥2♣ flop gave Ogura the nut flush draw and he faced a bet of 250,000 by Ewe, then improved to the nuts on the 6♥ turn.
Ewe now bet another 600,000 and Ogura flat-called once more with the dead lock on the hand. The 3♦ on the river was checked by Ewe and Ogura bet 1,400,000 to get paid off by Ewe, essentially evening out the stack sizes atop the leaderboard.
