Ashdown Calls Down Varrasso; Moves into Chip Lead
Level 37
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Harrison Ashdown opened to 1,600,000 and got calls from Luke Varrasso and Hector Berry in the blinds.
The trio checked the J♥10♣5♦ flop and the turn was the 2♥. Varrasso bet 2,000,000 and Ashdown was the only caller.
The river was the J♣ and Varrasso quickly bet 3,700,000. Ashdown eventually called.
Varrasso showed K♠8♥ for king-high with Ashdown taking down the pot and the chip lead with 3♣3♦
"Should have made it a bit more, huh?" said Varrasso as Ashdown stacked his newly-acquired chips.
