Ju Doubles Through Binder's Barrels

Chipleader Bernhard Binder opened his button to 250,000 . Samuel Ju called in the big blind and check-called Binder's bet of 175,000 on the 2♠J♥3♣ flop.

Binder sized up to 550,000 on the A♣ turn. Ju spent one time bank before check-calling, seeing him check a third time on the 10♠ river.

Binder put the ultimate pressure on Ju by moving all in, sending Ju into the tank once again. Ju disassembled his towers of chips to properly count them, and shook his head a few times as he thought things through.

After four time extensions, Ju decided to call for his tournament life. Binder could only show a stone-cold bluff with his 9♥4♥. Ju tabled A♥2♦ for two pair, and he raked in a double-up worth nearly 45 big blinds.
