Anderson Reclaims Chip Lead
Level 34
: 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 10♦4♦7♥, Zlatin Penev had bet 600,000 but then James Anderson check-raised to 1,700,000. After some thought, Penev made the call and the two went to the turn Q♦.
Anderson continued his aggression and led out for 3,600,000 but Penev still made the call to see the river fall the 8♠.
After tanking for about 20 seconds, Anderson assembled some chips and slid out a bet of 7,700,000 and now it was Penev's turn to think.
After a good while, he slowly slid in his cards and the huge pot was awarded to Anderson, resuming the chip lead over Penev with almost 28,000,000.
