Khan Continuing to Accumulate

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Junayed Khan is continuing his impressive early start. He three bet Emad Alabsi's original raise and when faced with a four bet to 13,550 he moved all in. Alabsi tanked... and tanked some more... and tanked some more. Finally, Melanie Weisner asked for the clock to be called and he quickly folded.

Volpe Gets His Fill

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante
Paul Volpe
Paul Volpe

Paul Volpe raised to 700 in middle position, Jonathan Little three-bet to 2,000 out of the small blind, and Volpe made the call.

The dealer fanned {4-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, Little led out for another 2,000, Volpe called, and the turn was a repeat four - the {4-Hearts}.

Little fired another 3,600, Volpe once again called, and the {7-Clubs} completed the board. Sipping his tea, Little knuckled the felt, and Volpe announced that he was all in. He pushed forward his 12,850-chip stack, and Little quickly called.

Volpe ripped over {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a full house, and Little smirked before mucking his hand facedown.

Ostrander Doubles

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Greg Ostrander was all in and at risk on a flop of {6-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}, and he was in great shape to double up with {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Johannes Mueller had him at risk with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}, and the {j-Diamonds} on the turn gave him a Broadway draw.

The {9-Clubs} bricked off on the river, and Ostrander doubled to around 30,000 chips. Mueller slipped to 19,200.
