Jordon Moves into Chip Lead

Level 8 : 300/600, 600 ante

Catching the action on the {3-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} river, Terry Jordon had bet 20,500 into a pot of around 50,000.

His opponent was Nikolay Ponomarev who tanked, holding the chips to call in his hand, before calling.

"Two pair?" asked Jordon, tabling {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Ponomarev mucked. This pot boosted Jordan up above the 100,000 mark and into the probably chip lead.
