Rocco Eliminates Lehr to Soar into Chip Lead
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Michael Rocco opened to 40,000, Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 130,000, and then Keith Lehr moved all in for around 650,000. Rocco went into the tank for a few moments before he announced he was all in for more, which resulted in a hasty fold from Hellmuth.
Keith Lehr: J♠J♦
Michael Rocco: A♠A♥
The board of 3♣Q♠3♥4♥A♣ only improved Rocco to aces full to rocket him into the chip lead while Lehr made his way to the exit.
