Thorel Takes the Lead Back
Level 36
: Blinds 3,000,000/6,000,000, 6,000,000 ante
Terrance Reid opened to 12,000,000 with A♥6♠ on the button, and Bernhard Binder called from the small blind with K♣9♣. Jean-Noel Thorel also came along, holding Q♣J♣ in the big blind.
All three players checked through the K♥4♥9♠ flop, with Binder and Thorel tapping the table again on the 3♥ turn. Reid fired a bet of 13,000,000, and both opponents called.
Binder led out for 20,000,000 on the 10♣ river, and Thorel stuck in a call. Reid took some time before letting his hand go.
Binder tabled his two pair, while Thorel showed his straight to regain the chip lead.
