Baumstein in Front
Level 2
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Marko Neumann limped in from the small blind, then called a raise when big blind Scott Baumstein made it 2,800 to see a flop.
The dealer fanned out , and Neumann check-called a bet of 3,100. He check-called another 6,800 on the turn, and the double-paired the board on the river. When Neumann checked again, Baumstein fired out 25,000 chips into a pot of 26,000. Neumann gave it a good long look before calling, and we'd never get to see what he called with. Baumstein tabled for the full house, and that was the winner.
With that pot, Baumstein has taken the chip lead with 172,000.
