Senninger Not Taking It Lion Down

[user46392]

Nikolai Senninger, the fluffy Lion King toy mascot rather undermining his be-sunglassed cool, raises preflop. Nobody finds anything they want to call with though, and he takes it down. The Lion King toy remains impassive.

Big Stack Gets Bigger

[user46392]

Aaron Gustavson min-raises to 120,000 and Rui Milhomens calls; they go heads up to a {K-Diamonds}

flop, which they both check.

Gustavson bets out 160,000 on the {8-Spades}

turn and Milhomens disappears into the tank for a while, his eyes rolling all over the shop as he considers his options, but eventually gives it up.

Gustavson up to 7.4 million, well over a third of the chips in play.
