Santerne and Ten Haven Battle Into Break
On the final hand before the break, Chris Brewer and Pieter Aerts folded in the cutoff and in the button respectively, leading Thomas Santerne to make it 280,000 on the small blind.
Duco ten Haven called in the big blind, and called Santerne's 160,000-chip continuation-bet on the 2?Q?7? flop as well.
Santerne slowed down once the 6? turn hit the table and checked to Ten Haven. Ten Haven took the opportunity to make a bet of 250,000, which was called by Santerne.
Another check followed on the 9? river, after which Ten Haven bet 750,000. Santerne thought about it for a bit before flicking in a call.
Ten Haven showed J?10? for jack-high, and Santerne showed he was playing the hero with A?8? for a correct call with ace-high.
He went into the break with a vast chip lead, while Ten Haven would come back with 19 big blinds.
