Big Hands for Worthington-Leese
Leonard Maue opened to 100,000 in the cutoff with A?Xx and Jason Wheeler three-bet to 375,000 on the button with 8?8?. Leo Worthington-Leese four-bet jammed all in for 3,785,000 in the small blind with Q?Q?. Maue quickly folded whereas Wheeler use a time extension before letting his hand go.
Two hands later, Worthington-Leese raised to 100,000 in the cutoff with K?K? and Maduka Meragal called on the button with A?7?. Maue also came along from the big blind with 9?Xx and the flop of A?10?9? hit the felt.
Worthington-Leese continued with a bet of 90,000 and both players called. The 3? peeled off on the turn and Worthington-Leese sized up a bet of 285,000 after making the nut flush. Meragal got out of the way but Maue stuck around for the 4? on the river.
Maue checked again and Worthington-Leese reached back for a bet of 715,000. Maue sighed and nodded his head as he was forced to send his cards to the muck.
