Hands #107-111: The Lead Swings Back and Forth

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Hand #107: Ben Tollerene sticks to his limping strategy out of the small blind, this time with the {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, and Jake Schindler checked his options. Tollerene bet the minimum on the {8-Hearts}{A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} flop and Schindler check-folded his {Q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

Hand #108: Schindler raised to 240,000 with {K-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Tollerene three-bet to 800,000 with {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. Schindler reached to his pile of orange chips and matched the price.

The {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop was once again better for Schindler who hit the top pair. Tollerene checked his ace-high and Schindler took the betting lead, firing 600,000. Tollerene wasted no time and folded.

Hand #109: Tollerene finally raised from the small blind, making it 180,000 to go with {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. Schindler had {K-Spades}{4-Spades} and three-bet to 700,000 to Tollerene's pleasure. Tollerene four-bet shoved to seize the pot and the chip lead.

Hand #110: A limped pot saw both players catch a piece of the {7-Hearts}{K-Spades}{2-Spades} flop as big blind Tollerene had the bottom pair with {4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} while Schindler had the middle pair with {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Schindler bet 80,000 in position and Tollerene called before they both checked the {A-Spades} turn and the {9-Clubs} river, leaving Schindler the winner.

Hand #111: Tollerene limped his {K-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Schindler tapped with {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}. The all-spade {A-Spades}{2-Spades}{J-Spades} flop gave Schindler a flush draw and he checked to Tollerene who bet 80,000. Schindler then threw in 325,000 for a check-raise and Tollerene gave up.
