Lepovic Regains the Lead by Some Margin
Level 40
: Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante
Brett Lim came along from the button with the 7♠5♥ and Elan Lepovic checked his option in the big blind with the 9♦8♠. The flop brought 9♠6♥3♣ and Lepovic check-raised from 2,000,000 to 5,500,000 for Lim to call with his double gutshot, which then hit a pair on the 5♦ turn.
Lepovic bet 13,000,000 into a pot of 15,800,000 and Lim pondered about his decision for half a minute to then call. Nothing changed with the K♦ on the river and Lepovic checked, Lim reluctantly checked back and fell behind in the pecking order once again.
