Leonard Applies Pressure
Level 19
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
A player opened to 26,000 from the cutoff and was called by Patrick Leonard in the big blind.
Action checked to the preflop aggressor on a flop of J♥K♥7♦ and he continued for 40,000. Leonard made the call to see a turn.
Both players checked through the Q♣ turn to the 6♦ river. Leonard then pushed 82,000 into the middle, sending his opponent into the tank. A lengthy period of speech play from Leonard ensued until eventually the cutoff released his holding to send the pot to the online phenom.
