Byrne Gets Some Breathing Room
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jordan Batis opened to 40,000 from middle position and it was folded to Jaxon Byrne, who shoved for his last 235,000 from the cutoff. Action was back on the Batis and he quickly called to put Byrne at risk.
Jaxon Byrne: A♦8♣
Jordan Batis: K♥Q♦
It was a fair fight that went Byrne's way after the 2♥7♦J♠J♥10♣ runout left him best with his ace for the double up.
Batis, on the other hand, took a relatively small hit to his big stack and is still among the chip leaders with about 1,800,000.
