Preflop Confrontation Puts Ostash Back Into Lead
Level 35
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Mykhailo Ostash put all of his 6,800,000 chips at risk on the button. Tomasz Brzezinski quickly called in the big blind as the pair shared yet another all-in showdown.
Mykhailo Ostash: K♦Q♣ 
Tomasz Brzezinski: A♥8♦
Ostash flopped trips on K♥5♣K♠ to nearly lock up the pot. He officially received the checkmark on the 9♠ turn, and the players returned to the table as the 8♣ river completed the board.
Once again, Ostash was in the chip lead, although it was a very thin lead.
