Meet The New Boss, Same As The Old Boss

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Chip boss Albert Daher bet 3,000 into a pot of about 4,000, four-handed on an {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. Just two opponents called and when Daher checked the {10-Spades} turn and one opponent joined him, the third player led for 7,000.

They both called and when Daher checked the {4-Diamonds} river, the opponent in the middle of the two aggressors pushed all-in for his last 11,050. Both players folded, but Daher retained a stack in the 260,000-chip range and it appears he has a good shot at bagging the Day 1b lead, now late in Level 8.
