Changing of the Guard
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Action started with Damir Stefanic limping in from the small blind. Lonny Weitzel, in the big blind, raised to 875,000, and Stefanic called.
The flop 3♠9♠5♦ saw Stefanic check-call a bet of 1,600,000, before both players checked the 9♣ turn.
Stefanic then took over the betting lead on the 4♦ river, putting out 3,400,000. Weitzel called, and Stefanic turned over 7♣6♠ for a rivered straight.
Unable to beat a straight, Weitzel returned his cards to the dealer face down, and the dealer pushed the pot to Stefanic, making him the new chip leader.
