Jeremy Ausmus Doubles Into Chip Lead
Viktor Blom raised to 1,300,000 from under the gun with J♦7♦ and he was called by Chris Hunichen from the button with A♦J♥. The action didn't stop there, as Jeremy Ausmus decided to up the pressure as he pushed all in with Q♠J♠ from the small blind.
Chance Kornuth folded quickly from the big blind and Blom got out of the way as well, but Hunichen wanted a count.
The dealer counted the stack as 11,125,000 and Hunichen went into the tank using multiple time banks, each giving him an additional 30 seconds to think. Ultimately, he made the call to generate a chip lead pot of 24,350,000.
The flop fell 9♠8♥6♦ to give Ausmus a gutshot straight draw. The 10♦ on the turn only left Hunichen hoping to chop and the 9♦ river doubled Ausmus into the chip lead.
