Local hero Ruben Perceval, who has shown time and time again he is a force to be reckoned with, has just won the biggest pot to date in this $100K Gtd event.
On a flop showing
, Ruben went into a betting war versus (at-the-time) chip leader Emmanuel Gordon. Once all was said and done, and no more chips were left to wager, the two players tabled their hands.
Ruben showed down
, and was up against the
of Emmanuel. The turn
brought a few more outs to Emmanuel, but the river
was just the brick Ruben was looking for.
Ruben slid forward a hair over 1-million in chips to be payed out, and with a few hundred thousand already in the middle, he now holds roughly 2,500,000, good for the tournament chip lead.
