Haberman Takes the Lead

In Level 32 with blinds of 30,000/60,000 and an ante of 7,500, Michael “IIIIIIIIIIIII” Haberman opened to 132,000 on the button and James ‘Bagels’ Lillis defended his big blind. The flop fell {4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Lillis led out with a bet of 289,000. Haberman called.

The turn came {10-Hearts} and Lillis led out again, firing another 608,000. Haberman thought for a few moments and shoved all in for 2,7 million, nearly all of Lillis' chips.

Lillis went deep into the tank, thinking for over a minute before finding a fold. With the pot, Haberman has now taken over the chip lead with a couple of minutes before what will likely be the final break of the night.
