Chip Leaders Collide

Level 41 : 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Henry Acain raised from middle position to 8,000,000 and was called by chip leader Christian Taylor in the big blind.

{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} was the flop and Taylor led out for 10,000,000. Acain called.

The turn came the {a-Clubs} and Taylor slowed down by checking. Acain decided to charge Taylor to see a river by betting 17,000,000. Taylor made the call.

The river was the {8-Spades} and Taylor announced 56,000,000. Acain asked the dealer "How much behind" before going into the tank as he counted his chips. Acain eventually made the call. Taylor said "You're good" as he showed {9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. Acain showed {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for top pair top kicker which won him the biggest pot of the tournament so far, moving him into a big chip lead.
