The very same man who won the draw for the Buffalo Sabres tickets the other night has earned the chip lead here into Level 3 with an early double up.
Facing a 500-chip early position open, Alex Rivera bumped it to 1,100 and got the call. Heads-up on the flop with one spade, both players checked. Rivera's opponent led out for 300 on the turn and he raised to 1,300.
After calling, Rivera's opponent led out for 3,000 on the river and Rivera pushed all in for the rest of a full starting stack. Rivera's opponent called, mucked and headed out the door when Rivera turned over the .

Sit back and strap in, this ride could get a little bumpy as the second of six starting flights for the third event on the 2015 Seneca Fall Poker Classic schedule kicks off inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room this evening.
Set at a price-point designed to attract top local rounders, recreational players and even slot players fresh off the local shuttles, this $100 buy-in $50,000 guaranteed, multiple starting flight, multiple re-entry event promises to be a wild one, as players fire away all day and night for a shot at a big score.
Players will get 15,000 chips at the start and must play through fourteen 20-minute levels, or until 12 per cent of the starting field remains, to push through to Thursday's second and final day. A total of 13 players are already there from the 56-player first flight this morning.
Registration and unlimited re-entry is available through the start of Level 9. As previously mentioned, this event has six starting flights over the next three days, including two more at 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. local time tomorrow, and players can play more than one even if they bag chips, taking their best stack forward.
The quicker structure, affordable buy-in and the Niagara Falls Poker Room's reputation for laying its guarantees to waste should make for big fields and a ton of action as this event plays out.
PokerNews will of course be on hand for it all, continuing at 6 p.m. local time, so just sit back and enjoy the ride.
