Kolev Climbs into the Lead
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
There was a full board of 4?4?A?9?7? when Daniel Neilson bet 1,600,000 and Boris Kolev called. Neilson turned over 10?9?, but Kolev had J?J? to take the pot with jacks and fours.
On the next hand, Neilson raised to 800,000 and Kolev called. The board was 2?J?A? and Kolev check-called a bet of 600,000. The turn was 5? and Kolev check-called again, this time for 2,600,000. Both players checked the 8? river and Kolev turned over J?7? for a pair of jacks. Neilson tossed the losing hand in the muck.
