Hand #2: Elton Tsang Takes the Chip Lead
Level 16
: 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
Hand #2: This hand featured the first flop, the first multi-way pot and the first big pot of the final table all rolled into one. Andrew Pantling raised to 850,000 from under-the-gun+1 and picked up calls from Elton Tsang (button), Cary Katz (small blind) and Brandon Steven (big blind).
A flop hit the felt, Pantling continued for 1,700,000 and Steven was the only player who folded. Pantling bet a further 3,500,000 on the turn but both he and Katz folded when Tsang raised to 9,000,000 total. With that pot Tsang has taken the chip lead.
