Snyder Takes Early Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
The action was caught as Steven Snyder made it 1,800,000 preflop from the button and was called by Matthew Volosevich from the cutoff.
The two players went heads up to a flop of 8♥5♠Q♠ and Snyder continued for 1,300,000 after a check from Volosevich.
Volosevich made the call to see the 9♥ on the turn, which both players decided to check through to the J♦ on the river.
Volosevich checked once more, which prompted Snyder to set out a stack of 4,300,000, which sent Volosevich into the tank.
After about 30 seconds of thought, Volosevich slowly slid his cards into the middle and awarded the large pot to Snyder, which received a few cheers from his rail.
