Another Massive Pot Vaults Aziz Back Into The Lead; Day 1 Chip Leader Rodrigo Navarro Busts
It's another massive pot for Daniel Aziz that vaults him back into the chip lead.
In the hand, Day 1 overall chip leader Rodrigo Navarro shoved all in from under the gun for 77,000. Next to act, Naresh Trivedi called the bet. On the button Daniel Aziz opted to raise, making it 200,000 total to play. The player in the big blind then moved all in for 124,000 total. Trivedi called the 200,000 raise from Aziz creating three pots. A main pot of 77,000 and four calls plus blinds and antes, a side pot with 47,000 more for the big blind's all in and a 150,000 side pot between Aziz and Trivedi with action still to go.
The flop came down and both players checked. On the turn, Trivedi checked. Aziz announced a bet, and Trevidi quickly folded awarding Aziz the side pot.
Big Blind:
Navarro:
Aziz:
Both players were already drawing close to dead with Navarro only being able to chop with another queen on the river, but it was the that came and that awarded the monster pot to Aziz who once again holds the top chip leader spot.
