Tapscott Movd into the Lead
Herbert Tapscott was down to around 65,000 not so long ago, but he just won a pot to take over the lead from Gavin Griffin.
These two players and Ashly Butler had made it all the way to the river where the board read 



. There had been action all the way down swelling the pot to around a 900,000.
Griffin had a stab on the river and was called by Tapscott.
Griffin: 


for ace-king high.
Tapscott: 


for queens.
Butler had open folded 


just before this and was instantly regretting it after he saw his opponents' hands.
