Drinan Cements Lead Further
Level 44
: 350,000/700,000, 90,000 ante
Viktor Ustimov limped the small blind and Connor Drinan checked his option in the big blind. They checked all the way to the 
river on which Ustimov check-raised to 2,730,000 and forced a fold.
Drinan got those chips back soon after when Ustimov raised to 1,400,000 first to act and folded to a shove by Drinan on the button. The next two pots also went to Drinan without any major resistance as he pulled above 55 million in chips.
