Cappiello Makes a Huge Call to Jump Into the Chip Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
A massive pile of chips totaling around 2,000,000 was already in the middle as Candido Cappiello and Xiaohua Yang went heads-up to the A♦5♠Q♦ flop. Cappiello then bet 550,000 from the big blind and Yang called in early position.
Both players checked the 9♠ turn. Cappiello also checked the J♦ river and Yang fired out 2,000,000.
Cappiello spent a few minutes in the tank before he called. Yang shook his head and turned over 10♦10♠. Cappiello showed K♦K♣ as he dragged in the massive pot, overtaking Yang for the chip lead in the dying moments of Day 2.
