Hope Wins Big Flip to Take Lead

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Daniel Hope
Daniel Hope

It's tight at the top and it appears that Daniel Hope is currently leading the field after winning a timely double at the expense of an unfortunate tablemate.

All the chips had gone in pre-flop and Hope was the at-risk player, teetering on the brink of elimination on the turn with the board reading {7-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. However, the arrival of the {a-Clubs} river saw Hope get there, and he celebrated with a tap of the table and a shout of 'Yes!'

After stacks were counted down, Hope's opponent was left with around 6,400 while Hope edged into a slight chip lead with a stack of 145,000.

Brad Kain is close behind with a little over 140,000, while Malcolm Trayner has dropped down the pecking order slightly and is sitting on a stack of 135,000.
