"Good Bet" from Howe

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Dan Howe was in early position and bet 16,000 into a pot of about 25,000 on a {7-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop. Jesse Elliott called on the button and the two saw a {j-Diamonds}, which checked through. Howe blasted out a big bet of about 90,000 on the {4-Spades}.

"Good bet," Elliott said with a sigh, mucking his hand.

Aguilera Gets a Lucky Double

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Nick Aguilera shoved all in from the big blind for 51,500 on a {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop and got snap-called by David Johnston.

Johnston: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Aguilera: {j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Aguilera needed help with second pair against top. The {10-Spades} gave him a straight draw, and the {j-Spades} was good for two pair and a double on the river.
