Hand #242 - Denes Kalo

The button is with Denes Kalo in Seat 1.

Kalo raises it up from the button and Maxime Villemure makes the call from the small blind.

The flop of {A-Spades}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs} is checked around. The {J-Hearts} hits the turn and Villemure makes a half-pot bet. Kalo then raises to around 1 million in chips. Villemure folds and Kalo takes down the big pot.

Players Tired/Unwell, But Hanging Tough

Glen Chorny
Glen Chorny
We've only lost one player this past level, with very few all-in confrontations. There were a couple of interesting moves from Isaac Baron, but unfortunately they didn't go his way as he was eliminated in fourth place. The remaining three players are playing very snugly as we pass the 1 a.m mark local time. Maxime Villemure is clearly under the weather, but showing plenty of steely resolve at the table. Glen Chorny has a handy chip lead, and although he is visibly tired, he is going to be tough to beat. After the break the blinds will be cranked up once again, which should encourage some more action!
