Big Call Extends Stout's Lead
Hand #89: Stout raised to 100,000 and called after Finger three bet to 250,000. On the 
board Finger bet 200,000. Stout raised to 545,000. Finger folded and Stout collected the pot.
Hand #90: Finger raised to 100,000. On the 
board, Stout checked to see a 100,000 chip bet from Finger. Stout raised to 260,000 and was called by Finger. On the 
turn, Stout continued with a 285,000 chip bet. Finger went into the tank, but eventually called. The river was the 
and Stout slowed down with a check. Finger counted out a huge bet, then put it in the pot.
It was 525,000 for Stout to call. He leaned back in his chair and let out a big sigh. After thinking over it for a bit, Stout made the call.
Finger showed 
for nine high, and Stout had made the huge river call with just 
for third pair. It was the right call and Finger was left with a short stack and a huge deficit to make up.
