Lebedev Doubles Up After Break
Level 23
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
In one of the very first hands back after the break, Rocco Palumbo made it 65,000 and was called by Emil Patel before Sergey Lebedev moved all-in for his remaining 612,000. Palumbo folded and Patel made the call.
Lebedev: 
Patel: 
Patel showed jacks and Lebedev let out a sigh before getting to his feet. However, he immediately sat down when the flop came 
. He had to fade a spade or a jack, but the 
on the turn meant that he only needed to fade either of the remaining kings in the deck. But the 
on the river was a brick ensuring the chip leader at the start of the day moved back over the one million chip mark
