Darland Takes The Lead
Level 27
: Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Jason Darland called in the small blind and in the big blind, Richard Hawkins checked his action.
The board of J♥5♦10♦ saw action check to Hawkins who bet 200,000, which Darland called.
On the K♣ turn, action checked through to the river 7♦ that saw Darland bet 625,000. Hawkins looked back at his cards while counting out chips, then raised to 1,325,000 which Darland called.
Hawkins turned over J♠7♣ for jacks up, but it was no good against K♠10♥ for kings up of Darland who took the tournament chip lead.
