Estrada Gains Momentum After Flip With Geilich
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Soraya Estrada just won a big flip against the start-of-day chip lead, Ludovic Geilich.
Geilich raised from the button to 125,000 and Nichan Khorchidian called in the small blind before Estrada made it 600,000 out of the big blind. Geilich then took some time before he four-bet to 1,585,000, which got Khorchidian out of the way. Estrada had 2,040,000 total and stuck all of her stack into the middle, and Geilich called off the rest.
Soraya Estrada: A♦Q♦ 
Ludovic Geilich: 5♦5♠
Geilich was a flip away from being a huge chip leader but would need to find a two-outer after the J♣K♥Q♠ flop paired Estrada's queen. A 2♥ on the turn removed the backdoor chop opportunities, and the 8♣ river meant Estrada leapt up the counts to around 4,300,000.
