Will Durkee playing on Day 2b

Over at the featured TV table, Will Durkee clashed with Patrik Antonius. The young American won their first battle and knocked Antonius out of the top spot.

I picked up the action on the turn. The board read {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

{K-Spades}

. Will Durkee bet the pot, Patrik Antonius raised all in, and Dukee quickly called.

Durkee: {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

Antonius:

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

Durkee was ahead with a straight, while Antonius had two pair. The river was the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

and Durkee's straight held up. He doubled up against Antinus and increased his stack to over 200,000. Antonius slipped to 240,000 losing the chiplead in the process.
