Early Salvoes

Following Stang's departure, the action continued are more sedate pace. Tom Rafferty and Michael Egan played a pot, with the former raising to 12,000 from the cutoff and Egan defending from the big blind to bring play heads-up to a flop of {5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts} where the action went check, bet 13,000 call to bring the pair to the {6-Diamonds} turn. Egan checked for a second time, pitching his cards into the muck when Rafferty fired a 31,000 second barrel.

The next hand saw Qiang Fu the man raising the action to 12,000 from middle position, with Roger Teska defending his big blind to bring the two to a flop of {k-Spades}{j-Spades}{a-Spades}. Teska check called Fu's 12,000 flop bet and the dealer burned and turned the {6-Diamonds}, where the action went check, check.
