Calderaro Takes the Lead

Level 27 : 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

Alexey Rybin raised to 360,000 in the small blind, and James Calderaro called in the big blind.

On the {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop, both players checked. The {10-Spades} appeared on the turn, and Rybin checked, Calderaro bet 500,000, and Rybin called. After the {5-Diamonds} river, Rybin checked again, and Calderaro bet 1,000,000. Rybin quickly announced a check-raise to 3,000,000, and Calderaro grabbed into his stack to aim for calling chips. Calderaro called, and Rybin shook his head.

Calderaro showed {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a straight. Rybin mucked {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} face-up, and Calderaro jumped into the lead with his rail loudly cheering, "Let's go, Caldo."
