McBrayer Eying the Chip Lead
Level 18
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
From the hijack seat, Billy McBrayer raised to 9,000, and Mederic Lemenager three-bet shoved for 51,500 total. McBrayer called with his big stack, and the race was on.
Showdown
McBrayer:
Lemanger:
It took all five cards for Lemanger to catch up, but he finally did so as the board ran out . With jacks up, Lemanger doubles to 111,500, knocking McBrayer down to a still-very-healthy 335,000.
