Lahti Asks for a Board Pair, Gets It

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

Andrew Smith and William Lahti got all of the chips in on a {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop, and Lahti wasn't pleased when the cards turned over.

Andrew Smith: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
William Lahti: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Lahti asked for the board to pair and got just that, as the turn was the {8-Clubs}. The full house left Smith drawing dead, and he headed to the exit after the {q-Diamonds} hit the board on the river.

Shortly thereafter, Lahti added even more to his stack, knocking a player out with {k-Spades}{q-Spades} against {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} on a {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}{a-} board. After hitting the river straight, Lahti is up to 53,000 chips.

Capps Fighting Through

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Jesse Capps appears to be working through a bit of fatigue this morning, possibly related to last night's Run It Up karaoke party that ran until the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Capps is up to nearly 3x starting stack, however, after getting the best of an all-in ace-king vs pocket aces situation.

Capps open raised, an opponent flat called, and another player three-bet all in. Capps went all in, and the third player folded.

Jesse Capps: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Board: {10-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}

Capps' pocket aces held up, and he's at 27,000 chips.

Button: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Under-the-gun: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Tyson Apostol: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

"Gg, guys," the button said after seeing the hands.
