Patchell Out, Nourafchan New Leader

Joel Patchell opened with a raise to 60,000, Hamid Nourafchan reraised to 160,000, and it folded back to Patchell who called.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Patchell checked, Nourafchan bet, Patchell put in a large raise, Nourafchan then reraised all in, and Patchell called.

Patchell showed {6-Spades}{5-Spades} for a pair of sixes and a gutshot straight draw, while Nourafchan had just {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for a couple of overs. The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, and Patchell was still good. But the river brought the {A-Clubs}, and Patchell goes out in 107th place.

Nourafchan now moves to the top of the leaderboard with 4.81 million.
