Kandefer Leads; Three More Hands!

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Jeff Kandefer

Jeff Kandefer just cooled off a red hot Chris Meyers, grabbing the chip lead in the process.

He flopped a set of kings on a {k-}{4-}{2-} board. It checked to the {6-} turn, where he check-min-raised a 10,000-chip lead from Meyers. Meyers called, then hit a set of tens on the river. Kandefer led for 50,000 with about 60,000 in the middle and Meyers ripped it in.

Kandefer snapped it and showed Meyers the bad news. The 420,000-chip pot was pushed to Kandefer and immediately after, the clock was stopped with 10 minutes left in the level and a 'Brian Bartoe'-style draw was conducted to determine the number of hands left to play. They drew a three and it looks like Kandefer is going to bag the big lead.
