Petrangelo Busts Klein to Assume the Chip Lead
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Morten Klein and Nick Petrangelo were in a preflop raising war that ended with Klein being all in for a bit under 300,000 on the button against Petrangelo, who had Klein covered in the big blind.
Morten Klein: 10♠10♦
Nick Petrangelo: A♥Q♠
It was a race, but the K♦Q♣7♦3♦Q♥ runout improved Petrangelo to trip queens to claim his second elimination of the evening — vaulting him into the chip lead.
Klein reentered shortly after being eliminated.
