Juns New Chipleader After Monster Clash
Matthias Lipp opened to 22,000 from middle position, Leong Juns, the biggsest stack at the table, three-bet to 65,000 from the cutoff, and Charbel Salloum called cold on the button. Lipp also called, and the trio headed to the 6♦10♦3♠ flop.
It checked to Salloum, who barreled for 75,000. Lipp called, but Juns promptly moved all in. Salloum then called for 295,000, and Lipp called off his stack of 308,000 as well.
Charbel Salloum: Q♥Q♣
Matthias Lipp: K♦Q♦
Leong Juns: A♦9♦
Juns picked up a straight draw on the 8♥ turn, and the 7♥ river completed it. However, Salloum jumped up from his chair and loudly celebrated.
Juns could not help but laugh as he pointed out that he had made a straight, and the pot of over 100 big blinds was shipped to him shortly after.
