Lamb Adds to Chip Lead
Level 26
: Limits 120,000/240,000, 0 ante
James Chen raised the button with A♣J♦9♣4♥ and Ben Lamb defended the big blind holding 10♠10♦8♣5♣. The Q♦10♥7♠ flop favored Lamb, as he would flop middle set, with Chen flopping an open-ended straight draw.
Lamb took the initiative and bet into Chen, with Chen making the call.
Lamb bet out again on the 5♦ turn and once again, Chen called.
The A♥ river gave Chen top pair, but it was still behind the set of tens of Lamb and he would make the fold to Lamb's river bet.
