Martin Soars Into Lead
Level 10
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After losing a big pot by doubling up Jeffrey Spruitenburg, Daniel Martin immediately got involved in another huge pot.
James Collopy had opened to 3,500 from under-the-gun and then Daniel "Wretchy" Martin three-bet to 10,000 from early position. The middle-position player made the call but then when it got back to Callopy he four-bet to 35,000, to which Martin responded with a five-bet jam to cover the table and both players called to put these;ves at risk.
Middle Position: A♥10♥
James Collopy: Q♦Q♠
Daniel Martin: A♣A♠
With Martin in the lead, the board did not provide any help to his opponents and he scooped the entire pot to rocket his stack to over 500,000.
