LeBerre Takes the Chip Lead

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The player in the middle position limped in and the player in the hijack shoved for 78,000. Thomas LeBerre asked for the amount from the cutoff and the dealer confirmed it. LeBerre cut out calling chips and then decided to three-bet to 178,000. The button and blinds folded, and so did the initial limper so the cards could go on their backs.

Hijack: {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Thomas LeBerre: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

The flop came {6-Spades}{10-Spades}{k-Diamonds} for LeBerre to hit top pair and pick up the flush draw.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} for his opponent to make a pair and have one out left to stay alive.

The river completed the board with the {8-Spades} for LeBerre to improve to a flush to eliminate his opponent.

Edsel Garay was also eliminated over on the other table for the field to be reduced to 27 players. The fourth table was broken up the balance the other three out and with only 24 players getting paid, the bubble is looming.
