Leary Takes from Whyte

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 500 ante

James Leary raised to 2,500 on the button and Jamie Whyte defended his big blind. The flop came {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and both players checked. Whyte bet 3,500 on the {3-Spades} turn and Leary called.

The river was the {k-Diamonds} and Whyte bet 10,000. Leary raised quickly to 25,000 and after some consideration Whyte called.

Leary showed {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for a rivered two pair and Whyte mucked. Leary moved up to over 120,000, with tablemate Luke Marsh also above starting stack early on Day 1 of the £5,300 Super High Roller.
