Laak Takes the Lead

David Benyamine held the {K-Spades}{J-Spades} and Phil Laak held two black tens on the board of {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Benyamine checked and Laak fired 200,000. Benyamine called and that brought the pot to 690,000.

The river was the {2-Clubs} and Benyamine checked. Laak fired "almost all of it" as stated by the dealer. Benyamine folded and Laak scooped the chips to take over the chip lead.

Not Much Going On

There hasn't been much action at all this level. Without any hands being played much further than a raise prelop or maybe a bet on the flop, the hands are going back quick. With the blinds going up every 21 hands, things should start getting more pricey real soon.

Check, Check, Check, Check...

Phil Laak rasied to 60,000 from the button with the {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and David Benyamine called with the {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn was the {5-Spades} and both checked again.

The river was the {K-Diamonds} and both players checked one more time. Benyamine's pair of sevens were the best hand and he took it down.

Laak Hits Another King

Laak can't go wrong when he plays with a king in his hand
Laak can't go wrong when he plays with a king in his hand
Phil Laak moved in with the {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and David Benyamine tank-called with the {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

Laak smacked another kind when the flop came down {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. The turn was the {6-Spades} and then the river was the {4-Hearts}.

Laak's pair of kings earned him another double up and the two are almost even in chips.
