James Takes the Chip Lead; Sagle Lays Down Queens
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Joe Serock raised to 1,000,000 under the gun before Jason Sagle three-bet to 2,800,000 in the hijack. Jason James then four-bet to 7,500,000 on the button, Serock folded his Q?10?, and Sagle called.
The flop came 10?2?2? and James bet 5,500,000. Sagle called and the 9? fell on the turn.
James then moved all in, having Sagle's remaining 25,600,000 covered. Sagle spent several minutes in the tank before folding Q?Q? as James took the pot thanks to his K?K? to climb over 60,000,000.
