Böhringer Takes a Commanding Lead

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Kadir Uzunoglu defended his small blind and bet the flop of {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} to pick up a call by initial raiser Thorsten Böhringer in the under-the-gun position. Both then checked the {6-Diamonds} turn and Uzunoglu bet the {7-Hearts} river for 40,000. Böhringer eyed the stack of the Austrian and called to see Uzunoglu turn over {K-Clubs}{j-Spades} for a pair of kings with a jack kicker.

Böhringer had that beat with {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and won another big pot to strengthen his lead.

Right after, Cormier raised to 10,000 from under the gun and called the shove of Frederic Delval for 39,500 out of the big blind.
