Mestre Extends Table Chip Lead

Stewart Morrison

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Samuel Ju opened to 120,000, and only Raul Mestre called in the big blind.

Mestre checked on the Q♣6♠K♣ flop, but called when Ju continued for 125,000.

Both players checked on the 2♥ turn, and the 8♠ completed the board.

Mestre checked for a third time, and Ju checked back. Ju had A♦10♠ for ace-high, but was unable to beat the Q♠9♣ of Mestre.
