Rudolph Forces Out Mokri, Soars to Chip Lead

Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph made a raise to 6,000 from the cutoff and was faced with a three-bet to 27,660 from Kayhan "KayhanMok" Mokri in the small blind.

Rudolph made another raise to 82,500 and Mokri called. The J♦7♦8♠ saw Mokri take an unconventional lead for 33,600 chips, but it did not chase Rudolph away as he stuck around with a call.

The K♦ turn then fell and Mokri kept the aggression up, choosing to bet 51,600 chips into the pot. Rudolph responded with an all-in bet, covering Mokri's 357,602 stack. Mokri mulled it over for a bit but ended up letting his hand go, elevating Rudolph to the chip lead without showdown.
