Ballard The Leader
Stewart Ballard is the new chip leader. Surprisingly the chips did not come from Liam O'Rourke, but instead from Gordon Huntly.
The hand in question began when Huntly raised it up to 110,000 from under the gun. Ballard called in the big blind and the flop was dealt. Ballard went with a check-call here when Huntly led for 210,000. The hit the turn and this time both players checked. The on the river saw Ballard lead for 230,000 and Huntly let go of his hand to send the pot to Ballard.
