Andrew Pantling raised to 33,000 from the button, and Phil Laak matched it to see a flop. It came 
, and Laak check-called a follow-up bet of 42,000.
On the 
turn, Laak checked again, and Pantling fired a second bullet of 103,000 chips. Laak called it again, and the 
was the last card off the deck. Laak checked the river too, and Pantling took a long pause before announcing a bet of 240,000. Laak's call came quickly... and incorrectly.
Pantling turned over 
for the trip nines, and that was the winner-winner. That's the biggest pot we can remember during this heads-up duel, and it goes to Pantling. He's pretty much turned the tides here as Laak is now the one down to 730,000. That give Pantling 1.1 million and a sizable lead.
