We caught up with Ashton Griffin in a pot with one other player on a board of 
with about 15,000 chips in the middle. The other player was first to act and he led with a bet of 13,000. Griffin decided that wasn't enough for him, he raised to a total of 36,000.
The other player went into the tank and quietly tried to figure out Griffin's holdings. After about a minute and a half of thinking, the player called. Griffin showed 
for a rivered two pair and that was good enough to take down the pot when the other player mucked.

We just came on a four-way hand involving Tom Alner and Tommy Hang that had reached the flop with the board showing 
and decent-sized pot already starting to develop. It checked to Alner who fired 5,200 at the pot. Next to act, Hang raised to 10,500 and the other two players got out, but Alner called the raise.
Both players then checked the 
turn card. The 
fell on the river, and Alner quickly patted the felt to check. Hang took about thirty seconds to consider the situation, but then he checked as well.
Alner turned over 
, and Hang held on to his hand for several seconds before finally mucking.

We only arrived for the aftermath, but Luke Schwartz has earned a double-up here as we approach the midway point of Level 9.
The board showed

for the nuts while his opponent had

One player had moved all in and Laura Green had made the call before her husband Scott Born called all in from the blinds.
Green: 
Born: 
Opponent: 
WIth Green having the best hand, she would eventually run last on the 
board as her husband Born spike a runner-runner Broadway straight to stay alive with just a little above starting stack.
Green however maybe sending her Mr to the couch tonight as she took a hit to drop to 42,000 in chips.
