Leonard Battles Back Against Song

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Table 610 was the first of the day to reach heads-up play, with Kevin Song squaring off against Patrick Leonard. Song had built quite a chip lead as the table size dwindled, but Leonard continues to battle back.

Action was picked up after the river. The board read {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades} with 95,000 already in the pot. Song bet 55,000 before Leonard jammed with the effective stack of 270,000. Song took several minutes, but eventually found the call.

Leonard turned over {j-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, good for top two. Song mucked his hand. Leonard asked to see his cards, as players are required to show their hands in an all-in situation. The floor quickly came over, and informed Song that he cannot muck his hand after calling a shove. Two cards that were believed to be Song's cards were turned over, those being {j-}{6-}, but it was unclear if these were in fact Song's hole cards.
