Level 23 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

A massive pot just took place that has resulted in Ben Mintz pulling out to a decent chip lead.

It began when action folded to him on the button and he opened for 26,000. Luke Graham, who was in the small blind, then three-bet to 100,000, Mintz called and the flop came down 6h7c10h]. Graham proceeded to check-call a bet of 88,000 and then checked the {A-Hearts} turn. Mintz kept the pressure on with a big bet of 170,000, Graham wasted little time in called and the {4-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Graham checked for a third time and Mintz announced that he was betting 225,000. Graham thought for about ten seconds before making the call, but he mucked just as soon as Mintz tabled the {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a flopped set. With that, Mintz is up to a robust 1.5 million while Graham dropped to 200,000.
