Avitan Takes Control

From the button, Jan Skampa made an opening raise to 360,000. Avitan called, and the flop came out {10-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}. Avitan furrowed his brow and grabbed chips, sliding out a leading bet of 550,000. Skampa gave the same half-puzzled look but didn't waste much time with the call.

The turn was the {J-Spades}, and both men checked to the {4-Clubs} on the river. Avitan fired again, 750,000 this time. As soon as the bet was counted down, Skampa called. Avitan tabled {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs} for the trips, and his small cheering section erupted as Skampa sent his cards into the muck.

We're still waiting for him to finish stacking the pot, but Avitan has just about 10.5 million now, leaving Skampa down around 7 million.
