Say My Nam, Say My Nam

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

After a few limps, action was on Nam Le in the big blind. He popped it up to 450 and received one caller from the cutoff.

The dealer put out the flop of {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Le led out for 450 again. Quickly his opponent put him all in and even quicker, Le put a few chips signifying a call.

Le: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The turn came the {5-Spades} giving no extra outs to the cutoff player and keeping Le well in the lead. The river fell the {9-Diamonds} giving the cutoff player four cards to a straight, but not much else. With that, Le was able to collect a much needed double up here on Day 1.
