Cary Katz Doubles Through Ben Tollerene, Takes Chip Lead
Mikita Badziakouski opened to 36,000 from the hijack and Ben Tollerene called on the button. Cary Katz came along from the big blind and then checked the [JsTd3d] flop.
Badziakouski checked as well and Tollerene bet 35,000. Katz called and the Belarusian briefly thought before he folded.
The [5s] came on the turn and after Katz checked, Tollerene shoved.
Katz was covered and he used two time banks before deciding what to do with his final 246,000.
Just before he needed to use a third, he flung a chip into the middle for a call.
Tollerene turned over [KhQd] and Katz had to fade the overs and open-ended straight draw with [Jh9d].
The [5c] paired and Katz secured the double to take the chip lead.
