Lambrecht Shoots Into the Chip Lead With Bullets
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Tauan Naves opened the button to 800,000 and Matthew Lambrecht three-bet from the big blind to 2,500,000. Naves wasted no time in shoving for around 14,000,000, and Lambrecht snap-called for 9,450,000 total.
Matthew Lambrecht: A♣A♠ 
Tauan Naves: 10♣10♥
A brutal spot for Naves who started the day as chip leader and was now at risk of becoming one of the bottom stacks. There was a board to sweat but it changed nothing as the 8♦5♥9♠2♥Q♠ runout kept the pocket aces of Lambrecht in the lead.
