Dattani Takes the Lead After Coolering Neves
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Pedro Neves made it 240,000 to go on the button and Michel Dattani three-bet to 960,000 in the big blind. What followed was a four-bet click to 2,000,000 by Neves and the action was back on Dattani.
After using one time bank, Dattani glanced at all stacks and then moved all-in for 6,545,000 to get snap-called by his fellow countryman.
Pedro Neves: 
Michel Dattani: 
The 
flop gave Dattani aces full and Neves needed running kings or nines to avoid a major setback. However, the 
turn and 
river runout flipped the stack sizes of the two players from Portugal to see Dattani leap into the top spot.
