Baumann Contending For Chip Lead, Shows the Nuts
Nível 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Around 120,000 was already in the middle as Gaelle Baumann and Alexander Shelukhin went to the turn on a board of Q♠K♥9♥6♣.
Baumann then slid forward a tower of blue 5,000 chips for a bet of 100,000 from the small blind, Shelukhin moved all in, and Baumann snap-called for 365,000.
Shelukhin showed 9♦9♣ for a set of nines, while Baumann had J♦10♦ for the nut straight. Baumann needed to avoid the board pairing on the river to earn the massive pot, and she saw the J♣ fall as she moved into contention for the overall tournament lead with that massive pot.
