Julian Powell Wins Monster Pot

In a massive clash on table 25, Julian Powell has just doubled through Shane 'shaniac' Shleger to assume the tournament chip lead.

On a board of {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Shleger bet out 900 from the cutoff and Powell check-raised to 2,600 from the big blind. Shleger made the call.

The turn landed {9-Hearts} and Powell went all-in. Shleger asked for a count before making the 7,000 call.

Powell flipped {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and we believe Shleger mucked his cards before even seeing the river. The {2-Hearts} was dealt and Powell raked in a massive pot worth over 20,000 chips, leaving Shleger crippled.
