Duek Closes the Gap on Weiss
Level 29
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Dennis Weiss opened to 1,050,000 from the cutoff with K♣J♥6♣2♦ and Michael Duek defended from the big blind with A♠K♠J♠7♦. The flop came A♣10♣2♥ and Duek check-called a bet of 1,150,000 from Weiss.
The 10♠ paired the board on the turn and Duek checked again. Weiss put together another bet of 2,050,000 with his combo draw but Duek still called. The 3♠ completed the board and Duek checked for the third time. Weiss checked it back after bricking out and Duek closed the gap between himself and the chip leader.
