Conway Emerges as New Leader
Thomas Conway just took a nice pot from Mazin Khoury, our previous leader, to take the pole position here in Level 17.
Conway opened with a raise from middle position and, after Khoury three-bet from the button, Conway put in a four-bet. Khoury called and the two players went heads-up to a flop of 
. Conway led out for 32,500 and Khoury called. Both players then checked the 
turn and 
river, and Conway tabled 
for a turned pair of tens. Khoury looked shocked to see his opponent's cards and he tossed his hand into the muck. Conway has eclipsed the 400,000-chip mark, and Khoury has slipped below 200,000.
