Hawes Rising Again

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

A four-way board of {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds} was checked down entirely and Charlie Hawes shrugged, then asked "does anyone have anything? I have ace-high" and tabled his {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}. That was good enough to win the pot, as Sandy Sinclair, Ebon Bokody and Ehsan Amiri all mucked.

Bokody then check-folded the {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} turn to a bet of 40,000 by Hawes and won the next pot. Bokody remains in the lead on the outer table with Hawes right behind him.
