Stein Continues to Close the Gap

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Chris Oliver raised to 220,000 with the {Q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Sam Stein was on the button with the {5-Spades}{5-Clubs} and made the call. Galen Hall called out of the big blind with the {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. As you can see, all the fives in the deck were gone and Stein had both players dominated.

The flop came down {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} to keep Stein's fives in the lead. Hall checked and Oliver fired 340,000. Only Stein made the call as Hall ducked out of the way, not opting to peel to his gutshot.

The turn brought the {10-Clubs} and Oliver slowed down with a check, not having anything on that board. Stein seized the opportunity and bet out 535,000. Oliver folded and Stein picked up the pot to move to nearly 10 million in chips. He continues to close the gap on Oliver.
