Max Altergott New Chip Leader
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Max Altergott had bet 8,400 on a board of 
with roughly 19,000 already in the pot. Bryn Kenney called and then Ryan Julius moved all in. Altergott thought for a few minutes before moving all in himself, leaving Kenney in a difficult position.
"It's so brutal, I have to see a board runout no matter what," said Kenney before calling off for roughly 100,000.
Altergott: 
Julius: 
Kenney: 
Both the turn and river blanked, and Altergott scored the double knockout and vaulted into the chip lead. It was doubly bad for Julius who had only rebought at the beginning of the level.
