Hand #2: Brian Green Chops With Daniel Neilson

In the second hand of hand-for-hand mode, Daniel Neilson calls the button shove by Brian Green who is the player at risk for 146,000.
"I didn't look at my cards before, otherwise I would have tried to slow roll," Neilson jokes. They had already exposed the cards briefly before turning them over again.
Green's A♥ K♥ are up against A♣ K♦ and the J♣ 2♥ 2♠ 7♦ 7♥ board ensures a split pot.

Yakiv Syzghanov Takes Charge
Two players call Brian Green's 2600 raise then they see a flop land 5♠ 6♥ 2♥ . From the big blind, Yakiv Syzghanov bets 3300, Green folds, small blind Hugo Machado check-calls. The turn J♣ sees a larger bet of 18,000 from Syzghanov which is enough to for Machado to choose to fold.

Brian Green Keeps Adding Chips

Heads-up to the A♣ K♥ Q♥ flop, Brian Green bets 3,000 in the cutoff and Sreekanth Narayanan calls on the button. Green then ups his sizing to 15,000 on the 6♠ turn and Narayanan folds. With more than five starting stacks at the end of level five, Green appears to be unstoppable right now.
