Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The turn came {J-Spades} and LeFrancois bet out 375. The other player called and the river came {6-Spades}. LeFrancois checked and the other player fired out 1,300. LeFrancois thought about it and kicked his cards back to the dealer.

A Few Chippies

In the small blind, Dan Kelly opened to 250, and Steve O'Dwyer reraised all in with his covering stack. Kelly had 2,800 chips left, and he stuck them all in there to put himself at risk.

Showdown
Kelly: {A-Clubs} {9-Hearts}
O'Dwyer: {A-Hearts} {4-Hearts}

The board ran out {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {10-Clubs}, and Kelly has doubled back to 5,600. O'Dwyer is back down to 9,000, there or thereabouts.

Le Chipping Up, Too

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Nam Le was just in the enviable spot of finding aces versus queens. The money didn't get in until after the {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} flop, and the player with the {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs} was the one that did the shoving. Le did the calling with {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}, and the turn {9-Spades} and river {4-Hearts} kept him in front.

Le has doubled to abot 12,000.

The river bricked for the small blind falling {3-Clubs} and Lee has doubled his starting stack.
