It wasn’t a milestone hand but two of the big stacks had a little battle that changed the top of the leaderboard. Sean Shah opened to 12,000 from the button and Kunal Patel called in the big blind to see the 9d8d3s flop.

Patel check/raised to 39,000 after Shah bet out for 11,500 and Shah took his time to think about it. After a few moments, Shah moved out a big stack of 5K chips after announcing 110,000.

Patel only took a few seconds before releasing his hand. It wasn’t a huge pot but it was enough to move Shah over Patel in the counts.

Sean Shah – 580,000 (97 bb)
Kunal Patel – 574,000 (96 bb)
