$360 NLH $50,000 GTD (Day 2): Raminder Singh Sends Field Into The Money, Assumes Chip Lead

$360 No Limit Hold'em
$50,000 Guaranteed
Level 18 (Blinds 3,000/6,000/500)
Total Entries: 211
Players Remaining: 21


Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL) has been his talkative self this afternoon, chirping away while all of his chips were at risk.

We approached Table 2 during hand-for-hand play, with two players all-in, and another thinking about making the call.  After Alfred Mansur opened the action from the cutoff, Michael Wetcher three-bet shoved for 75,000, with Raminder Singh re-shoving the button for over 200,000.  Action was back on Mansur, who had both players covered, and was deep in the tank.  Alfred eventually took a stack of chips in his hand and placed them across his cards, and we have a three-way all-in on the stone bubble:

Wetcher: A♠ J♣
Singh: A K
Mansur: Q Q♠

Runout: 5♣ 3 2 K♠ 6♣

While Mansur's pocket queens held the lead on the flop, it did bring extra outs for both of his opponents.  The turn quickly changed things, as Raminder spiked a king to grab a commanding lead, which would hold through the river.  Michael Wetcher would be eliminated on the money bubble, while Mansur found himself left with less than ten big blinds.

Raminder Singh - 445,000 (74bb)
