Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Michael Marder was up to more than 1.4 million, then this happened:
On a flop of 
, Marder led for 30,000, only to have Ison jam for 200,000 total.
Marder said "I can't fold this," and called, showing 
for top pair. Ison had him pipped with 
for the better kicker.
When the 
came on the turn, Ison improved to two pair and the 
on the river sealed the double-up for him. He's playing about 500,000 while Marder's stack has slipped to ~1.2 million, but is still up from where he started the day.
