LeBerre Takes the Chip Lead
The player in the middle position limped in and the player in the hijack shoved for 78,000. Thomas LeBerre asked for the amount from the cutoff and the dealer confirmed it. LeBerre cut out calling chips and then decided to three-bet to 178,000. The button and blinds folded, and so did the initial limper so the cards could go on their backs.
