Carmona Gains Massive Chip Lead at Table #644
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Five handed, action was picked up with Luis Yepez Carmona with all his chips worth 450,000 in the middle of the table for an all-in and with action on Rene Lazaro Cifuentes on a flop of 8♠7♠Q♦6♠K♦ and a pot of about 700,000.
Cifuentes was taking his time to decide what to do, staring intently at the board. Finally he made the call. Carmona showed 5♣4♣ for a straight. Cifuentes, visibly frustrated, flipped over K♣Q♥ for a two pair.
Carmona scooped the massive pot leaving Cifuentes with a little bit more than one big blind behind.
