Conniff Takes the Chip Lead With a Big Hero Call
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Halil Tasyurek limped in, Asher Conniff raised to 1,050,000, and Tasyurek called.
Conniff bet 600,000 on the 10?5?2? flop, and Tasyurek called. Both players then checked the 6? turn.
Conniff also checked the 3? river, and Tasyurek bet 1,800,000. Conniff tanked for several minutes before calling.
Tasyurek showed 8?7? for missed flush and straight draws, while Conniff turned over A?J? and won the pot with ace-high to take the chip lead for the first time in the heads-up match.
