Mullur Doubles Into Chip Lead
Level 34
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Samuel Mullur raised to 4,500,000 from the button and Frank Brannan defended the big blind.
The flop landed 2♦5♦10♠ and Brannan checked. Mullur bet 2,500,000 and Brannan check-raised to 8,000,000. Mullur called.
The J♣ came on the turn and Brannan fired out a bet of 14,000,000. Mullur used a time extension before he moved all in for 35,900,000, and Brannan quickly put in the chips for a call.
Samuel Mullur: K♦K♣
Frank Brannan: J♠4♠
The players and the rails awaited the final card in anticipation as Brannan needed a jack or four to win the tournament, but the 7♠ river kept the kings in front, and Mullur secured the pot to take a sizable chip lead.
