{K-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

. The turn was the {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

and Thillai was drawing dead. The river was a meaningless {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

Down to two players. Gary Benson has a healthy 3 to 1 chiplead over Emad Tahtouh. There will be a short break. Action will resume in a couple of minutes.
