Polk Jumps Out Front

Josh Noy

Level 50 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 0 ante

Doug Polk opened to 60,000 on the button with Q?10? and Chanracy Khun defended from the big blind with J?8?. The flop fell 8?3?3? and Khun checked to Polk who continued with a bet of 40,000. Khun check-raised to 140,000 and Polk just called.

The turn was the K? and Khun checked again. Polk fired out a bet of 265,000 and Khun stuck around for the 10? on the river. Khun checked for the third time and Polk put together a bet of 620,000.

Khun gave it some thought and but opted to lay his hand down as Polk took over the lead for the first time in the match.
