Pidun Widens the Gap Over Karlic
Level 33
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Daniel Pidun made it 1,100,000 to go with the A♠9♠ and Gerald Karlic called with the J♠10♣ to flop best on K♣J♦7♣. Karlic checked to Pidun, who continued for 1,250,000. The Austrian then opted to flat-call and Pidun hit the A♦ on the turn.
Karlic checked once more with his now third pair and Pidun made it 3,500,000 to go, the reluctant call followed. On the 4♦ river, both players checked and Pidun won the pot to claim a lead of more than two to one.
