Chris Tryba flopped a set at an optimal time and doubled up into the chip lead. 

Chris Tryba has been near the top of the chip counts for most of Day 2 and is back on top once again after doubling up through Dilo Vanhussen.

Tryba opened in early position and faced a small three-bet from Vanhussen. Tryba called and the flop came out 9♥4♦2♣. Tryba checked and Vanhussen bet 350,000. Tryba shoved for 1,500,000 and conversed with Vanhussen about the contents of each other’s hand. Vanhussen called for effectively his entire stack totaling 1,500,000 and was trailing with 8♥8♠ against the 9♣9♦ of Tryba.

The Q♦ turn did not give Vanhussen anything and the 6♣ river left him with a single big blind. Tryba doubled to 3,300,000 and is the current chip leader.
