Nam Le has been extremely active here at the NAPT Venetian. He jut got involved in another pot where he fired 1,000 on the flop of {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

. His opponent made the call, bringing the two players to a turn card of the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

. Both checked the turn and then the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

fell on the river.

Le fired 2,200 and his opponent made the call, but did so with an unhappy look at his face. Le showed him the highest straight available with the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

. The other player held the {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

for a smaller straight.

Le is now just over 80,000 in chips.
