The Professor vs. The Russian
Howard Lederer (X)(X)
Vitaly Lunkin (X)(X)
Vitaly Lunkin had the bring-in and the action folded around to Howard Lederer on Lunkin's immediate right.
"I haven't looked yet," said Lederer as he completed the bet. "You have to call, right?"
Lunkin did call and off to fourth street they went.
"OK, now I'll look," quipped Lederer who peeked at his down cards then put out a bet. Lunkin called.
"Wow... I check" said Lederer as their fifth street cards came out. Lunkin bet and Lederer gave up his hand.
The Professor is down to 106,000 while Lunkin is up to 112,000.
