Rezaei Scores a Double Elimination to Secure the Chip Lead
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Nicola Marxer raised from the cutoff and was called by James Ross on the button. Daniel Rezaei in the big blind raised for more than his opponents' stacks. Marxer shoved all-in for 52,500 and Ross eventually jammed as well for approximately 75,000.
Nicola Marxer: Q♦Q♥ 
James Ross: K♠J♦
Daniel Rezaei: A♥2♥
Rezaei found a few outs thanks to a flop of 10♦9♥10♥. The K♣ turn gave the lead to Ross, but the cruel A♣ river sent both Marxer and Ross to the rail. Thanks to this pot, Rezaei ends the day as the overall chip lead with 639,000.
