Padilha Extends His Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Manuel Fritz raised to 600,000 from under the gun with 8♦8♠. It folded to Pedro Padilha in the hijack holding A♣Q♦ and he elected to three-bet to 1,900,000. It folded back to Fritz who made the call.
The flop came 5♥K♥6♣ and Fritz checked to Padilha, who fired 1,100,000. Fritz gave it some thought but elected to give up his pair and give the pot to Padilha.
