Katz Scores Lucky Double Against Becker to Take Chip Lead

Level 14 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Cary Katz

Jack Salter limped in for 30,000 from middle position, and Cary Katz called in the cutoff. From the button, Johannes Becker raised to 120,000.

Action folded back to Salter, and he called. Katz announced he was all in for 982,000, and after a few moments, Becker announced he was all in too. Salter folded.

Katz: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Becker: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

Katz was at a huge disadvantage, but when the dealer spread the {K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{J-Spades} flop, he thrust into the overwhelming lead.

Needing to fade an ace, the {2-Hearts} and {Q-Diamonds} on the turn and river would be neither, and he would collect the double to climb into the chip lead with over 2.15 million in chips.

Alex Foxen raised to 65,000 from under the gun plus one and was called by Jack Salter in the hijack.

Both players checked the {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop before the {k-Diamonds} dropped on the turn.

Foxen checked. Salter bet 95,000. Foxen called.

The {5-Spades} completed the board and Foxen checked. Salter then moved all in for 366,000 which sent Foxen into the tank.

Several minutes had passed, due to Foxen using two of his time extension buttons, before he finally made the call.

Salter then tabled {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and took down the pot after Foxen exposed his {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} for a smaller pair.
