    Back-To-Back For Carlston

    Facing a limp from Jason Dewitt, Kyle Carlston bumped the action to 50,000 to take the pot down.

    The following hand Carlston opened the pot to 32,000 to take that one down as well.

    With back-to-back wins for Carlston, he will be looking to push his chip count upwards after slowly dwindling over the first two levels of play.
