Normand Extends His Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Robert Nehorayan limped in the small blind and Frederic Normand checked his option in the big blind.
On the A♠9♣3♦ flop, Nehorayan led for 80,000 and Normand put in the call.
Nehorayan led again on the Q♦ turn for 175,000. Normand inquired about the size of Nehorayan's stack before he flatted.
The 6♠ river checked through as Nehorayan announced that he had a three before sheepishly revealing K♥J♠10♠3♥ for bottom pair with a missed wrap and no low. Normand tabled J♣9♦6♦2♦ for two pair, sixes and nines, which were enough for the winner as he extends his lead atop the counts.
