Level 21
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Darren Elias opened to 320,000 in the cutoff and Lewis Spencer defended from the big blind. The flop came J♥7♣3♥ and Spencer check-called a bet of 225,000 from Elias.
The turn was the Q♦ and Spencer checked again. Elias tossed in a bet of 500,000 and Spencer stuck around for the K♦ on the river. Spencer checked for the final time and Elias opted to check it back. Spencer tabled A♥7♥ for a pair of sevens and Elias was unable to beat it.
