Riding the Elevator

A few hands after his double up, John Juanda gave those chips back in a tangle with Julie Schneider. Juanda open-raised, and Schneider called from the blinds. Juanda drew two-one-one, and he bet after the first and second rounds. Schneider swapped two-two-one, and she was check-calling as her opponent bet. Both players checked the last round, and Schneider had the winner with 9-7-5-3-2. That dropped Juanda down to 48,000 but he wasn't out the door just yet.

On the next hand, Juanda raised from the hijack seat, and both Schneider and Masayoshi Tanaka came along with him. Schneider and Tanaka took two and three cards respectively, and they checked to Juanda. He stood pat and bet, Schneider folded, and Tanaka called.

Juanda was done drawing, and he bet all in for 12,000. Tanaka took two cards and called, and he would draw two again after the betting was closed. He was holding 7-6-5 and drew Q-7 on the end to make a bad pair. Juanda was pat with his 9-8-6-4-3, and that pot brought him back up to 120,000.
