With a new lease on life, Jason Newburger crippled Pete Lawson when Lawson raised before the flop with pocket sixes and Newburger woke up in the big blind with pocket nines. He raised, Lawson made the call, and after Lawson got no help on the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

flop the

{9-Hearts}

spiked on the turn to give Newburger the pot.

On the next hand Lawson put in the rest of his chips with {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{8-Spades}

and this time Newburger held pocket deuces. The board rand out {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

{4-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

and Pete Lawson, not long ago our chip leader, was eliminated in fourth place, winning $72,497
