Pardo Leads the River; More Players Hop In
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick raised to 2,500 from the hijack and was called by Juan Pardo in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Pardo checked over to Chidwick, who bet 5,000. Pardo called and both players checked the 
turn.
Pardo led out for 12,000 on the 
river and Chidwick used a time bank before giving up his hand.
Mike Watson, who won the €50,000 High Roller early this morning, is among a group of players who have joined the field, bringing the total number of entries to 32.
