Gibson Bets Big on the River to Extend Chip Lead
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ryan Gibson just won a massive pot against Michael Perrone to extend his already-substantial chip lead.
With the board showing 
on the river, Gibson bet 500,000 from under the gun. Perrone, from middle position, went into the tank, cutting out the chips to call and looking back at his cards multiple times.
After about three minutes, the clock was called and the tournament floor started counting down 30 seconds. With the clock nearing zero, Perrone called.
Gibson showed 
for a full house, sixes over fours, to take the pot and move close to 2,500,000.
