Johnson Extends the Lead
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Marco Johnson opened to 350,000 in the cutoff, and Veerachai Vongxaiburana defended his big blind.
Vongxaiburana checked the 8♦6♥K♥ flop, and Johnson continued for 425,000. The call was made and both players checked through the 6♦ turn.
Another check from Vongxaiburana followed the A♦ river, and Johnson took some time before announcing a pot-sized bet of 1,700,000. After confirming the amount, Vongxaiburana opted to let his hand go, and Johnson raked in more chips for his growing stack.
