Chilton Pads His Lead
Michael Chilton raised to 125,000 from the cutoff and Mike Hurley called from the big blind.
The two players saw a 10♠9♥6♠ flop and Hurley check-called a bet of 100,000 from Chilton.
The turn came the 8♠ and Hurley led for 200,000, getting the quick call from Chilton.
The river brought the 10♥, pairing the board, and this time Hurley bet 225,000, getting another quick call from Chilton.
Hurley tabled 9♣7♦ for a ten-height straight, but Chilton turned over Q♣J♥ for a queen-high straight to take the pot.
