Reichard Rests Trigger Finger; Meehan Doubles

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Ken Auker
Ken Auker

Josh Reichard opened to 4,400 from a middle position and was called by Tony Lazar and Ken Auker in the blinds. Everyone checked the flop, and the turn double-paired the board: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. Reichard bet 5,200 after two more checks, and only Auker called. Auker checked the {8-Spades} river, and Reichard thought for a bit before making what looked like a reluctant check.

Auker showed {a-}{6-} for ace-high, but it was good.

"I know better than to try to bluff you," Reichard said.

At another table, "Minneapolis" Jim Meehan, a bracelet winner, doubled up with {k-Spades}{j-Spades} on a board of {6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. We didn't catch his opponent's hand.

Stone Doubles Up

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Nik Stone shoved all in for 31,200 in the blinds after a player opened in early position. The opener called to put Stone at risk.

Stone: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

It was a good spot for Stone, and he breathed a sigh of relief after the {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop. A {2-Diamonds} turn ended his opponent's chances.
