Riky Lara was in the big blind when Djon Palushaj limped. The next player to act raised to 1,000 and Lara reraised to 2,000 when the action fell to him. Palushaj folded and the raiser called.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and Lara bet 3,500. His opponent called. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and Lara went all in, putting his last 6,200 chips at risk. His opponent called and showed top pair with {a-}{k-}.

Lara was in the lead with pocket aces, and stayed ahead when the {6-Spades} came on the river.

Serratos Fires Twice, Gets Paid Off

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
Jose Serratos
Jose Serratos

Jose Serratos was heads up looking at a board reading {8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. He led out for 3,200 and put his opponent to the test.

His opponent seemed to have a tough decision. He pulled his hand up and flicked it a couple times. He eventually called.

The river was the {2-Spades} and Serratos hesitated a moment, before betting 5,050. His opponent called much quicker this time, but was dismayed when Serratos showed a straight, holding {j-Spades}{10-Spades}. He flipped over his aces to let the table know and the dealer shipped the pot to Serratos.
