Weis Nears 20 Million
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Oliver Weis 3♦3♣ raised to 200,000 from the cutoff, and Andriy Lyubovetskiy A♥3♥ moved all in for 2,945,000 from the big blind. Weis let go of his small pair.
Lyubovetskiy 7♥5♦ limped in from the small blind and folded after Mikhail Shamalov 7♣6♦ made it 350,000 from the big blind to take the pot.
Weis J♠J♣ opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Bobby James 10♣7♣ called from the big blind. The jacks remained in front on the A♥K♣10♠ flop, with James' pair of tens not being good enough to take the lead. James check-called for 300,000. The 6♣ turn gave James a flush draw and action checked through to the 3♠ river. James checked and the pot was pushed to Weis after the chip leader checked back.
