Both blinds checked a 
flop, and a player in middle position bet 2,000. The cutoff called, and Adam Lamphere made it 6,300 to go from the small blind. The big blind mucked, as did the bettor, and the cutoff announced he was all in. Lamphere called instantly, putting himself at risk for 20,325.
Lamphere: 
Cutoff: 
Lamphere was in fantastic shape, with his opponent drawing to a chop or running cards to make a full house. The 
reduced him to only chop outs, and the 
didn't get him there.
At the neighboring table, Matt Kirby has taken a seat. As previously mentioned, a knockout of Kirby will be worth $500 to anyone who can pull it off.

We found James Wilson on the button facing a bet of 5,300 from the cutoff on a completed community of 
. Wilson thought for a bit and tossed in a call, and the cutoff immediately mucked her hand. Wilson flipped over 
for top two and scooped the pot.
Wilson, a Minnesota native, had some good success in the last months of 2014 on the Mid-States Poker Tour. First, he cashed for $2,547 at MSPT Meskwaki in November, and he followed that up with a deep run in the final event of the year, MSPT Canterbury. There, he finished runner-up to fellow Minnesotan Peixin Liu, scoring $61,473 in the process.

"Come on, you don't have to call," Johnny Ear cajoled an opponent after pushing all in from the small blind for 8,075. His opponent in middle position had put in 5,250 already preflop and made the call.
"I suppose you have ace-king," Ear said, showing

The board ran out 
, preserving Ear's hand the whole way.

Dave Lee got his last 12,000 in on the turn with the board reading 
and flipped over 
for a set of threes.
"That's no good," Lee's opponent said.
"It might be?" Lee said.
"No good for me," the player clarified, showing for top two.
Lee's opponent didn't fill up on the 
river, and Lee doubled up to 26,100.
He lost a chunk back on the next hand though, when he limped in under the gun and ended up flopping top pair and a flush draw with

. Lee didn't improve after calling a bet from the big blind of 1,100 on the flop and then betting 2,000 on the 
turn himself. The 
river went check-check and Lee lost to

. The player revealed 
for top set, but his opponent in the cutoff, Jeremy Fallaw, had made a straight with the same card, holding 
. The pot was about 6,000 before the river, and the player in the blinds had about 16,000 left. Fallaw had him covered, and he collected the early knockout courtesy of the friendly river card.
