Hand #17  –  Chino Rheem raises under the gun to 105,000, Richard Leger reraises from the cutoff to 220,000, and Rheem calls. Both players check to the turn on a board of Club JSpade 9Club 7Diamond Q, Rheem checks, Leger bets 300,000, and Rheem check-raises to 900,000. Leger thinks for a bit before he calls.

The river card is the Club K, and Rheem thinks for a while before he bets 1,060,000. Leger tanks for more than three minutes before he folds, and Rheem takes the pot — and the chip lead.
