Bane Holds Three Ways
Short-stacked Lory Bane opened for 1,500 from under-the-gun and collected four callers including Daniel Lowery and Kipp Smith. The flop came 
. The big blind checked and Bane moved all in for her last 5,200.
Lowery folded, a middle-position player called, and Smith raised to 15,000 from the button. The small blind folded and the middle-position player quickly moved the remainder of his stack, around 33,000, into the pot and Smith called.
Lory Bane: 
Middle-position player: 
Kipp Smith: 
The side pot was just as big as the main pot at this point, and Bane was pleased to see she was ahead.
"No spades," Bane said, going to the 
turn, so far giving Bane her wish.
The 
river paired the board and Bane would take down the main pot of 28,200 while Smith collected the sizeable side pot.
