Arends Extends His Lead
Level 24
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Jans Arends raised to 1,000,000 on the button with Q♠Q♣ and Cary Katz defended from the big blind with 6♠2♠. The flop came J♠7♠5♣ and Katz checked to Arends who made a bet of 1,800,000. Katz used a time bank and then just called with his flush draw.
The turn brought the 9♣ and Katz checked again. Arends counted out a bet of 4,000,000 and Katz was forced to dump his cards to the muck.
