Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

Lon McEachern

Lon McEachern, widely known for his commentary on ESPN's coverage of the World Series of Poker is off to a slow start. We caught him in a hand on a flop of {7-Spades}{q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. McEachern led out with a bet of 75 and two other players called.

The {8-Spades} fell on the turn and McEachern bet 150. One player folded and the player on the button called. The {3-Clubs} hit on the river and McEachern opened up with a 200 bet. His opponent raised to 400 and McEachern made the call.

His opponent turned over {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and McEachern folded his cards into the muck. He is down to around 1,700 in chips.
