To the Maxim

Shamus

Maxim Lykov has been active over the last orbit or so. Of course, he's been active all week, constantly pressuring his tablemates as he's stayed at or near the top of the chip lead over the last three days.

Just now he raised to 58,000 from late position and got a caller in Ad Schaap in the small blind. The flop came {2-Spades}

and both players checked. The turn brought the {10-Clubs}

. Schaap checked, Lykov bet 111,000, and Schaap let it go.

Soon after, Torsten Tent opened with a raise to 51,000 from the cutoff, and Lykov responded with a reraise to 185,000 from the small blind, forcing both the big blind and Tent to fold.

Lykov is still our leader with 1.989 million.
