Ivan Leow raised to 90,000 on the button and Wai Leong Chan called in the small blind. On the flop, Chan checked and Leow continued for 125,000, Chan check-raised to 350,000 and Leow called.
The turn gave Leow top pair and Chan snap-called for 605,000, Leow almost beat him into the pot to create the following showdown.
Wai Leong Chan:
Ivan Leow:
Instead of the straight draw, Leow made the better two pair with the river and that sent Chan to the rail in 3rd place. After finishing runner-up to Mikita Badziakouski in the Triton High Roller Series Main Event in Jeju just a few days ago, Chan collected another six-figure payday in Sochi and takes home RUB30,000,000 (approximately $472,500).
There will be a short break to set up the duel for the Super High Roller title between Abraham Passet and Leow.
