Noel Opens Up Lead with Strong Call
Level 34
: 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Bobby Noel limped the small blind and then called after Elliott Hebden exercised his option with a raise to 750,000. Noel proceeded to check-call a bet of 600,000 before action went check-check on the 
turn.
When the 
completed the board on the river, Noel checked for the third time and Hebden bet a hefty 2.5 million.
Noel eyed his opponent suspiciously before spiking in a call. Hebden rapped the table and mucked after Noel tabled the 
for a pair of queens.
