Neuville Moves In; Sarwer Calls!

Jeff Sarwer open-raised to 95,000, and Antonio Matias passed. In the big blind, Pierre Neuville made the call, and the two men watched the flop come {10-Clubs} {4-Spades} {J-Clubs}. Neuville checked it, and Sarwer continued out with a bet of 200,000. Neuville then announced an all in, and Sarwer instantly called.

Neuville showed {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, and he was in the lead; Sarwer showed {K-Clubs} {2-Clubs} for the draw, looking to fill it in and force his way into heads-up play. Neuville would find a safe turn card, the {4-Hearts}, and the river {7-Spades} secured his double up. Sarwer looked to the rail and shrugged, still smiling. He's still on top of the pack, but Neuville is now back in contention with about 1.5 million.
