Kerber Extends Chip Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante
Kelvin Kerber of Team Kerber made it 500,000 to go on the button and Michael Lancaster of Team Lancaster put in the call from the big blind.
Both tapped the table on the 5♣8♠J♥ flop to the 2♣ turn, where Lancaster fired 500,000 and Kerber called.
A 9♦ landed on the river and after a few seconds, Lancaster announced a bet of 1,000,000 and pushed the chips forward.
"Are you sure?" asked Kerber. Lancaster stay silent and not long after he put in the bet, Kerber called.
"King-high," said Lancaster as he rolled over K♥10♠. Kerber had that beat with 10♦9♥ as he rivered a pair of nines to extend his chip lead.
