Judah Takes Over the Lead

[user75032]

The hand may not have had much in the way of action, with Rainer Quel limping in and Mel Judah checking from the big blind. Both players checked the {5-Clubs}

flop. Quel tried a bet when the turn came {9-Spades}

but couldn't shake Judah. They both stuck around for the {k-Diamonds}

river. Quel checked to Judah, whose bet ultimately elicited a fold from Quel.

That small pot gave Judah the chip lead, with 190,000 chips to Quel's 176,000.
