Chris Bell limp-calls a 50,000 preflop bet.

{3-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Davidi Katai continue bets for 90,000 and Bell quickly calls.

Turn = {Q-Spades}

Kitai, his hand covering his mouth, fires another bullet, this time to the tune of 200,000.

A big pot for fourth street...

Again, Bell smooth calls.

River = {K-Diamonds}

Here goes Kitai again, confidently betting a whopping 400,000!

Bell seems troubled. He sits back in contemplation with his arms folded - he knows this is a crucial hand.

With Kitai's eyes fixated on the felt, the combination of hood and shades concealing his face, Bell makes what appears to be a very reluctant fold.

Davidi Kitai takes the chip lead for the first time in this tournament and now boasts a stack of over 1,400,000.

Hand #156 - Kitai

Another hand reaches a turn, Davidi Kitai lapping up the pot with a min-bet of 30,000 on a {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} board.

Min-bets, little raising and Kitai limping from the button without looking at his cards may be the reason for the lack of action thus far.

Hand #152 - Kitai

Board = {7-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Davidi Kitai bets 85,000 and Chris Bell makes the call.

River = {A-Spades}

Kitai checks and Bell bet 200,000.

A big pot is forming...

Kitai has 400,000 behind, it's going to cost him half his stack to call.

He calls!

The French contingent erupts as the announcer informs the crowd that Kitai's king high is good enough to take the pot.

Game on.
