The button is with Glen Chorny in Seat 7.

Maxime Villemure opens the action with a raise to 64,000. Chip leader Glen Chorny flat calls on the button and the blinds step aside.

The flop brings the {10-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Villemure checks over to Chorny who fires 110,000. Villemure thinks for a moment before making a check-raise for an additional 200,000. Chorny quickly folds and Villemure takes down a nice pot.
