Kaepernick Takes Over Chip Lead

Level 28
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Gregg Bloom raised to 400,000 in the cutoff with A♦Q♥ and got called by Ronald Kaepernick in the small blind with 8♠8♣.
The flop came 6♥5♠2♥ and Kaepernick led for 400,000. Bloom called to see the 9♠ on the turn.
The players now checked, and did so again on the 9♦ river as Kaepernick's two pair were good to take the pot, and the chip lead from Bloom.
