Sydenstricker Steals One From the Chip Leader
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Action folded to Simon Wiciak in the small blind who raised to 800,000 with K♣2♣. Joao Sydenstricker defended Q♥J♣ as they went heads-up to the 4♠7♥5♥ flop.
Wiciak checked and Sydenstricker checked behind. The turn came the 8♣ and Wiciak checked again. Sydenstricker then bet 625,000 with his queen-high and Wiciak snap-mucked to award the pot to the Brazilian, with shouts of "Vamos" ringing out from his rail.
