Two Chunks of Chips

Jimmy Shultz has taken a 2-to-1 chip lead after winning the last two pots. The first hand had a board looking like...

{9-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}

Shultz bet out on the river and was called by Fellows.

Shultz's {5-?} {5-?} good for that one.

The very next hand Shultz bet once again on the river with the board looking as follows...

{Q-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {8-Spades} {10-Clubs}

Fellows made the call but was shown {A-Diamonds} {7-Spades} for the pot. Fellows flashed a {10-?} at Shultz.

Jimmy Shultz around 1,700,000
Zac Fellows around 900,000

Back and Forth

Chips are moving between the two players every hand. Jimmy Shultz took a nice pot off Zac Fellows when he rivered a set of tens but he was winning anyway as Fellows only had a pair of sevens.

The next hand some of those chips went back the other way when Fellows forced Shulz to fold on the river after he had called all previous bets.

Fellows Takes the Lead

Over the last three hands Zac Fellows has taken back the chip lead. With a series of raises and reraises Fellows has stacked 1,635,000 in chips.

The biggest pot was four bets preflop and after the {A-Clubs} hit the turn Shultz tossed his hand in.

Fellows has won the last three pots in a row.

The First Few Hands of Heads Up

Honors were pretty even for the first three hands, with Jimmy Shultz taking down a moderate pot with a rivered Broadway straight and Zac Fellows taking down the next two with a flop bet.

The fourth hand saw a bigger pot go the way of Shultz. Fellows had raised it up from the button and Shultz called from the big blind before a flop came...

{3-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs}

Shultz led out for 40,000 and Fellows called before the turn came...

{A-Hearts}

Shultz check-called an 80,000 bet from Fellows before the river came...

{A-Diamonds}

Shultz led for an 80,000 bet and Fellows called but mucked when he saw the {9-Clubs} {7-Spades}.
