Graham's Pot Is Better

[user76023]

Gabriellson raises to 150,000 and Matt Graham reraises pot to 525,000 next to him to win the hand.

Apart from Marcus, it's pretty close for second place behind Lunkin right now.

The Sirens Are Sounding

[user67765]

Josh Arieh opened with a raise to 110,000 before Van "Sirens" Marcus re-popped it for his last 340,000. Arieh made a somewhat reluctant call.

Marcus: {A-Clubs}

Arieh:

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}

and Marcus clapped his hands in delight at making a straight on the river to double up. After a long toil on the short stack, Marcus is now back to around 700,000 chips.
