Lerner Folds A-A... Or Does He?

On a board of {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{K-Spades}, Seat 3 bet 9,000, Derek Lerner raised to 20,000, and Seat 3 pushed all in. After a long time, Lerner folded disgustedly, shouting "Two f*$kin' aces!"

Lerner's twin brother came over to the table and called him a liar.

"If you had two f*$kin' aces you would have pushed pre-flop!" he quipped.

Spidey's Stack Climbs

The UTG player raised to 10,000 and Partho "Spiderman" Data called from the big blind. The flop was the {A-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Spiderman checked, the UTG player bet 14,000, Spiderman raised to 30,000, and the UTG player called. Before the turn card could be dealt, Spiderman moved all in in the dark. After a long think, the UTG player folded. Spiderman showed A-Q.

Spidey was up to 330,000 after the hand.

Gale checked, the MP player bet 11,500, Gale moved all in and the MP player called. Gale turned over A-T and was nearly drawing dead vs. his opponent's set of nines. The turn and the river were both eights and "Gentleman" John was eliminated.

Derek Lerner Doubles Up

From the small blind, Derek Lerner moved all in pre-flop and the big blind called. Lerner showed A-K, dominating the big blind's A-7. Neither player's hand improved and Lerner dragged the pot.

Lerner has been having a yo-yo sort of day, winning and losing several large pots. His chip stack is back to where he started the day, around 60K.
