Bjorkheim Keeps Adding Chips
Level 23
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Anders Bjorkheim opened the action with a raise to 120,000 holding the J♥J♦. Seyed Tabaei came along with the A♦9♣ and Esko Brandt defended the big blind with the A♠7♦.
The 7♥4♦2♥ flop was checked to Bjorkheim and he made it 125,000 to go, Tabaei folded and Brandt called. What followed was the 8♣ turn on which Brandt checked which was now the second pair. Bjorkheim made it 350,000 to go and Brandt called reluctantly.
Nothing changed to the Q♦ river on which Brandt checked the third street in a row. Bjorkheim checked behind and raked in another pot to cement his status as the chip leader.
