The first part of Level 25 started with all three players taking turns three-betting one another but when the first substantive pot played out, it was Clement Richez taking on Matthew Leecy, once again.
Kyle Steinfelt opened the button to 60,000 and Richez three-bet to 95,000 in the small blind. Leecy called from the big blind as did Steinfelt. Richez bet 150,000 on the 10♦7♣3♦ flop and only Leecy called.
Richez checked the 6♣ turn and Leecy bet 220,000. Richez announced “all-in” with Leecy having him barely covered. Leecy’s cards hit the muck right away and Richez took the pot. He is playing 2,150,000 with Leecy, for the time being, down to 1,350,000.
