Turner Turns on the Heat, Retakes Chip Lead

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Jon "PearlJammer Turner" opened for 21,000 from the cutoff and Sadan Turker made it 63,000 to go from the small blind. Turner called.

The flop read {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Turker led out for 75,000. Turner responded by min-raising to 150,000. Turker thought for a while, but landed on a call.

The turn came a {Q-Spades} and Turker opted to check. Turner kept the pressure on, firing out 180,000. Turker folded.

The man known as "PearlJammer" is sitting with 1,020,000 - good enough for the chip lead.
