Maue Takes the Chip Lead from Stokes
Level 35
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 32,500 ante
Ivan "ILS007" Stokes raised to 500,000 from under the gun and Leonard "Grozzorg" Maue was the only interested party in the cutoff. The flop of Q?2?10? saw Stokes continue for 550,275 and Maue call.
Stokes then fired a pot-sized bet of 2,750,000 on the 5? turn and Maue made another call. The 10? river was subsequentially checked by both players, and Stokes' pair of fies with 7?5? was beaten by Maue's A?Q? for a pair of queens, giving the chip lead to Maue.
