Higgs Wins a Big Pot Off Lim
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Michael Lim raised to 3,000 and picked up calls from Fedor Holz in the small blind as well as Sam Higgs in the big blind. On the flop of 
, both Holz and Higgs checked and Lim continued for 5,000 to force a fold from Holz and a call from Higgs.
After the 
turn, Higgs checked once more and Lim made it 16,700 to go. Higgs quickly check-raised to 41,700 and Lim called after just brief consideration. The 
river brought a bet of 75,000 by Higgs and Lim called to see the Australian turn over 
for a queen-high straight.
Lim defended his big blind soon after against a raise to 3,000 by Sam Greenwood, but instantly check-folded the 
flop to a continuation bet.
