Stapleton Short; Lehrer Doubles

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

Joe Stapleton raised to 1,600 off a short stack and Toby Wilkins called out of the big blind. They checked all the way to the {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} river on which Wilkins bet. With a smile on the face, Stapleton folded and added "I had the only pair you cannot call with."

One hand later, a short-stacked Benjamin Lehrer was all-in with {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} against the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} of Costin-Geani Manole. The pocket pair held on the {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} board and Lehrer staved off elimination.
