Hands #70: Soverel Doubles Into the Lead in Massive Hand
Level 19
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Hand #70: Sam Soverel opened the hijack for 260,000 and received calls from Elio Fox (cutoff) and Andrew Lichtenberger (small blind.)
Everything was relatively quiet on the flop of 
as it was checked through.
The 
on the turn, though, not so much. Lichtenberger lead out for 350,000 and Soverel raised to 1,400,000 with 1,925,000 behind. Fox went into the tank and used some time bank cards before shoving all in. Lichtenberger needed his full 30 seconds before he released his cards into the muck. Soverel thought about it for just as long but eventually called.
Sam Soverel: 
Elio Fox: 
Fox needed the board to pair but it failed to do so with the 
on the river. Fox parted ways with 3,325,000 in chips, making Soverel the new chipleader.
