Little and Lisandro Climbing the Ladder

Jonathan Little and Jeffrey Lisandro just raked in significant pots to move to 78,000 and 35,000 respectively.

Little took down a big pot on his table after getting an opponent to call a big bet on the river holding two pair -- aces and fives -- with a queen kicker. His opponent flashed an ace before knuckling the table in defeat and sending his cards into the muck.

Meanwhile, over on Lisandro's table, we missed the action but the scene told the story. There was a jack-high straight on the board with three clubs and Lisandro's cards -- {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs} -- were tabled, as the dealer pushed him a massive pile of chips.
