Mestre Extends Chip Lead
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Raul Mestre opened the action with a raise to 45,000 in the cutoff, which only Leonard Maue called on the button.
Mestre continued for 40,000 on the 4♦6♥K♥ flop, and again, Maue called.
There was no slowing down on the J♦ turn, as Mestre put 105,000 into the middle. This time, Maue responded with a raise, making it 350,000 to go, and Mestre called.
Mestre checked on the 3♠ river, and Maue quickly checked behind.
When Mestre flipped over Q♣J♥, Maue mucked his cards face down.
