Under the gun: 
Middle position:

, giving him top pair, but the hand was far from over.
"He has the nine of spades," Rob Wazwaz said of Pick, as Pick pointed to the card. "He can win it all with a spade."
The dealer burned and turned the

"...Or a nine," Wazwaz added.
The

Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante

Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
After a player raised to about 1,600 and got a couple of callers, Jim Lawrence shoved all in for 4,550 from the blinds. Two of the players called, including the opener, and the two active players took in a 
flop. The initial raiser bet 5,000, forcing his opponent out.
Lawrence: 
Opponent: 
A chop looked imminent, as a 
turn meant most of the deck would leave the players without a playing kicker. The 
river gave Lawrence two pair though, and he scooped the pot.
