Bansal Takes a Commanding Lead

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Falcon raised to 125,000 and Uday Bansal called from the big blind. On a flop of {A-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Bansal checked and Falcon bet 125,000, which Bansal called.

After the {Q-Clubs} turn, Bansal checked and Falcon fired a secone bet worth 175,000. Bansal check-raised to 430,000 and Falcon sighed, but called after brief consideration. The {5-Spades} river completed the board and Bansal made it 625,000 to go.

It took more than two minutes for Falcon to make up his mind, but he did call and Bansal rolled over {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for flopped two pair. "I had ace jack," Falcon said and dropped below average. With six players remaining, Bansal is the only one above average and has more chips than all opponents combined.
