Battle Of The Blinds

Ernie Guardarramas has climbed back near the top of the counts by winning the battle of the blinds.

First he bet 400,000 into a 400,000-chip pot on a board to push newly minted chip leader Jason Sagle off a small versus big blind pot. Then, in another battle of the blinds, he called Bradley Girdler's small blind bet, and when Girlder continued on a flop with two queens, he came over the top with a big raise.

Girdler folded and here comes Guardarramas once again.
