There was already about 20,000 in the middle on the river and David Leese was facing a bet of 6,600.
Leese thought for a moment and then tossed in a calling chip. His opponent showed for aces and sixes with an eight kicker, but Leese had that beat with for aces and sixes with a ten kicker.
With that pot, he moves up past 50,000 as Level 4 begins.
