Nali Kaselias has the button in Seat 5.

He raises to 370,000, and again Kenneth Damm wastes little time putting in the call.

The flop brings {3-Spades} {5-Spades} {2-Spades}. Damm checks to the raiser, and Kaselias continues out with a bet of 300,000. That's enough to earn him the chips, as Damm releases his cards.

He raises to 460,000 total. Nali Kaselias makes the call.

The flop is a monster: {J-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. Both players check.

The turn is the {3-Diamonds} and both players check again.

The river is the {3-Hearts} and Kaselais bets 600,000. Damm quickly folds and Kaselias flashes {9-Spades} {6-Spades} to the crowd.

With that pot, Kaselias is the new chip leader, slightly edging out Damm.
