Le Builds Stack

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

On the heads-up turn of {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs}, Tommy Le and his opponent invested 25,000 each before the {7-Hearts} appeared on the river. Le now only bet 12,000 and his opponent was sent into the think tank. Eventually, the fold followed and Le claimed the pot without showdown to further climb up the leaderboard.

Tom Marchese was among the latest entries while Kido Pham and Veselin Karakitukov bumped up their stacks, too.
