Andrian Reclaims the Chip Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Simone Andrian raised to 800,000 on the button and Urmo Velvelt three-bet to 3,600,000 from the big blind. Andrian called.
Velvelt checked the J?2?9? flop and Andrian checked behind. Velvelt checked again upon seeing the 8? turn, to which Andrian put out a bet of 3,800,000. Velvelt check-raised to 27,450,000, putting Andrian all in. Andrian used a time extension before he ultimately made the call.
Simone Andrian: J?7? 
Urmo Velvelt: Q?2?
Andrian was ahead with top pair, but Velvelt had a lot of outs he could hit to end the tournament and become the 2024 WSOP Europe Main Event champion.
The dealer peeled of the 7? on the river, giving Andrian two pair, and propelling him back into the chip lead.
