Black Kings Give Mallette Chip Lead
In a hand that bled into the break, Quinterol Mallette slid in a raise to 1,000,000 under the gun.
Tanith Rothman called from the hijack, and Rafael Port did likewise in the small blind.
Feizal Satchu, who was in the big blind, three-bet all in for 5,700,000 chips.
Mallette thought about it for a bit, then moved all in with his 8,300,000 stack.
Rothman folded. Port pondered.
While he was thinking, the clock was called. when the floor was brought over, it was decided that Port has not had a reasonable amount of time to make his decision. He made the call without being put on the clock.
Feizal Satchu: 7♠7♣
Quinterol Mallette: K♠K♣
Rafael Port: 9♠9♣
With the runout of J♥4♣10♦2♠5♥ none of the pairs hit a set and nothing else was built in the way of a straight or flush, leaving Mallette's kings as the best hand.
With the win, Mallette became the overall chip leader.
