Eiler Takes a 2:1 Lead
Michael Eiler opened for a now standard 425,000 from the button and Martin Hruby called to see a flop; they both checked and the dealer out the on the board for them as well. Hruby checked again and this time Eiler bet 525,000. Hruby was undeterred, and made the call.
The river was the and Hruby checked a third time. This time he found himself facing a 1.225 million bet. He considered it for a minute or two before making the call, and then promptly mucked to Eiler's for a rather slow-played top pair.
Eiler now has a pretty hefty chip lead, 11.9 million to Hruby's 5.67 million.
