O'Neill Doubles and Regains the Lead

Jon Kyte opened to 1,000,000 from the button with K♠9♠ and Padraig O'Neill called with J♠4♣. Kyte made top pair on the 9♥6♦5♦ flop and continued for 1,400,000 and O'Neill let go of his hand.

In a limped pot to the J♦8♥6♦ flop, Kyte check-folded his 4♦2♥ after O'Neill bet 800,000 with his J♥10♠.

Kyte raised to 1,000,000 the hand after with J♣8♣. O'Neill had Kyte dominated with K♥J♠ and called. Both players paired their jack on the J♥3♥2♦ flop. O'Neill, with the better kicker, check-raised to 2,300,000 over a bet of 800,000 and was called.

The 3♣ came on the turn to bring in some chop outs. O'Neill fired out another 3,000,000 and was called.

There were 13,100,000 chips in the middle, and O'Neill had the best hand. He moved all in for 7,150,000 on the 10♦ river. Kyte was unable to lay down his top pair holding and called after using a couple of time bank cards.

O'Neill doubled up with the better kicker and reclaimed the chip lead.
