2 players remaining, 5.19 mill avg (65 bb)

After winning a pot with an uncalled river bet, Andrew Batkin wins an even bigger pot from TK Miles to grab the chip lead.

With the board showing , Batkin check-calls a 450k Miles bet.

River:

Batkin leads for 725k into a 2.625 million chip pot, putting Miles deep in the tank.

“Show me this one,” asks Miles as Batkin keeps his head down and eyes fixed squarely on his remaining stack of 4 million.

Miles mulls it over for literally 5 minutes and the hand’s total time extends well past 10 minutes.

“Was it a bluff,” asks Miles after reluctantly folding.

Batkin isn’t giving up anything as he swings the chip lead into his favor at 6.6 million to 3.8 million.
