Turton Rising

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Three players saw a {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop, and Jonathan Dimmig and Mike Leah were the only two that stayed in. They checked through the {3-Spades} turn, and Dimmig bet the {5-Clubs} river for 11,500. Leah called and said, "You got lucky," before the cards were shown. Dimmig flashed {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, and Leah tabled {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for a split pot. Both players hold one bracelet thus far and are looking to increase that number by one.

Another big stack is Jeffrey Turton, who just scooped a bigger pot. After calling a raise by the hijack, he was on a three-way flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades} and bet. The small blind called, and the hijack check-raised to 25,000, which only Turton called. On the {7-Hearts} turn, the hijack bet 47,000, and Turton moved all in. His opponent sighed and folded, claiming to have had ace-jack.

Maurice Hawkins, however, remains the current chip leader with more than half-million in chips.
