Sudol Cripples Araya
On a flop of 
, Alejandro Araya and Jason Sudol each put in 20,000 and watched the 
hit the river. Sudol proceeded to check-call a bet of 30,000, leading to the 
river. Again Sudol checked, and this time Araya fired out 85,000, leaving himself less than 100,000 behind.
Sudol, who would be left with about half the chip average if he were to call and lose, thought long and hard before making the call. Araya's face dropped a bit and he sheepishly turned over 
for a missed flush draw. Sudol turned over 
to collect the pot and increase his stack to 450,000.
