Level 28 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

The last few passes of the button have gone by without too much change in the chip counts.

Charles Moore gained a little ground by winning three pots in a row. The first one was a three-bet to 510,000 behind a Scott Stanko raise of 110,000. Stanko folded that one, and he folded the next hand to Moore's open-raise of 190,000. On the third hand of the series, Moore check-called a bet on the flop of a {5-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} board, then bet the river after the turn checked through. A stab of 225,000 was enough to get the job done.

Stanko pulled a bit of momentum back to his corner thereafter, though. Moore limped into a pot from his button, and Stanko raised to 140,000. Moore called again, then called another 175,000 on the {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} {7-Spades} flop. The {A-Clubs} hit the turn, and he'd be forced to fold for another 400,000.
