Brewer Leads to Win
Level 21
: Blinds 50,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante
Pieter Aerts raised to 200,000 on the button with his newfound stack and Chris Brewer defended the big blind. Brewer then check-called Aerts' 110,000 bet on the 7♥Q♠2♦ flop before the 2♥ turn paired the board.
Brewer decided to lead for 100,000 chips, receiving a call from Aerts. Brewer sized up to 250,000 on the 6♣ river, and Aerts called once more, this time after using one time bank.
Brewer showed J♣7♦ for two pair, sevens and deuces, and Aerts' cards swiftly hit the muck as he could not beat that.
