Leah Will Be Disappointed to Chop That
Level 36
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Christopher Cawlfield raised to 1,600 from early position and Eugene Pleyo jammed for 19,800,000 from middle position. Mike Leah called for his remaining 18,000,000 or so chips in the cutoff, and the rest of the table folded.
Mike Leah: A♠K♣
Eugene Pleyo: A♣Q♦
Leah would decimate Pleyo's stack if his big slick could stay ahead through the runout.
Pleyo picked up some chop outs on the 8♠8♣7♦ flop. A 4♦ turn was safe for Leah, but the 7♥ on the river double-paired the board, resulting in the two players chopping the pot.
