Docherty Doubles, Takes Commanding Chip Lead

Level 41 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

A huge pot just occurred between the final two contenders.

David Docherty made it 2,400,000 from the button and Declan Rice called from the big blind.

The flop of {5-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} was dealt and Docherty continuation-bet for two million chips. Rice then responded with a check-raise to 5,000,000, which Docherty called.

All the signs of a big hand were in the air as the {8-Hearts} turn was put on the felt. Rice continued with another bet, this time of 6,000,000. Again, Docherty obliged with a call.

The river was the {3-Hearts} and Rice checked the flush-completing card. Docherty thought for a little while before moving all in for a bet worth 18,075,000. Rice responded with a rapid call and all onlookers spectated the situation in awe.

David Docherty: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Declan Rice: {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Docherty rivered the nuts against Rice's turned two pair. He now has a six-to-one chip lead, with Rice being left with only eight big blinds.
