Marchese Takes Chip Lead

Tom Marchese has taken the chip lead in this final heat. He already won some small pots, before he raked in a sizeable pot with top pair.

Byron Kaverman raised it up preflop. He made it 2,400 to go in the 300/600-level with {J-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Marchese called holding {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

The flop gave both a pair with {2-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Both players checked and the {6-Hearts} fell on the turn. Marchese fired out a pot size bet of 4,900 and Kaverman called.

The river was the {7-Spades} and Marchese overbet all-in. Kaverman took his time, but folded.
