Level 23
Jason Stockfish
Jason Stockfish

Hold'em

Jason Stockfish seems on fire and he is crushing the tournament so far. There are a total of 7,510,000 chips in play and Stockfish has more than 20% of them in front of him already.

He just won another pot to add some more to his tack and he left Ron Ware behind very short.

Ware limped from the small blind but Stockfish raised from the big blind. Ware called to see the {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} flop and he check-called a 15,000 bet from Stockfish.

He also check-called a 30,000 bet on the {3-Diamonds} turn and on the {q-Diamonds} river.

Stockfish opened up {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for two pair and Ware just showed the {9-Diamonds} before he mucked his cards.
