Neckar Gaining Momentum

John Phan raised it preflop to 90,000 and Johnny Neckar made the call. They took a flop of {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn brought the {9-Hearts} and Neckar checked to Phan who fired 90,000. Neckar made the call. The river landed the {J-Spades} and Neckar checked. Phan thought for a long time, and had been picked off a few times on the river so decided to check behind.

Neckar showed {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} to take it down. Neckar is back to 1.8 million but still trails Phan on 2.5 million
