Kings-Up for Nikita

Both players checked as the {7-Hearts} landed on the turn and Lebedev pushed out a 27,000-chip bet. Frey made the call, and when greeted by a 45,000-chip bet when the river landed the {7-Spades}, he called that too.

Lebedev tabled his {K-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for two pair and collected the pot to move to 435,000 as Frey slips to 165,000 in chips.

Waki Slips, Then Doubles

Level 6 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Mark Radoja opened for 12,000 on the button and Yasuhiro Waki flatted.

Both players checked the {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop and then Waki fired a 17,000 bet when the {7-Clubs} fell on the turn. Radoja called.

The river brought the {6-Hearts} and Waki decided to check, prompting a 34,000 bet from Radoja. Waki called and showed {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for two-pair. Radoja tabled {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a better two-pair and dragged the pot, leaving Waki with just 70,000.

A few hands later, Radoja raised all-in from the button and Waki called for his last 65,000.

Radoja: {4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Waki: {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{J-Spades}{K-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Waki doubled up, leaving him with 132,000 against Radoja's 468,000.

The long heads-up battle continues with Lebedev at 280,000 and Frey at 320,000.
