Chad Campbell
Chad Campbell and Florian Strasser clashed for half of the chips in play with Campbell getting lucky on the river to double.
Both players put in about 200,000 preflop and Strasser bet 425,000 on the Q♣8♦3♥ flop. Campbell raised all-in for 1,101,000 total and Strasser used 15 seconds to call with A♦8♣4♠3♦.
Campbell said he didn’t think Strasser had “it” as he showed J♣9♣6♥4♣ for just a gutter.
The A♥ turn put Campbell on the edge but the 10♦ river brought him back to life. Campbell is the chip leader with 3,300,000. Full counts are below.
- Florian Strasser – 840,000
- Patrick Khayat – 1,160,000
- Chad Campbell – 3,300,000
