Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Kenna James and Tank
Kenna James and Tank

Kenna James has the best card protector in the room. Her name is Tank. She is a four year old Terrier-Chihuahua mix.

"Don't try to steal my big blind" said James, after picking up Tank and putting her in his arms.

Tank was a big hit at James' table and the surrounding tables, as players took pictures and couldn't help but smile and laugh.

Cernuto's Kings Hold

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

John Cernuto found his stack getting perilously low and he saw a flop with two other players looking to acquire some chips. The flop came {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Cernuto bet after the other two players checked. The first player called, the young lady in the nine seat made it two bets to go, and Cernuto three-bet. The original caller folded and the player in the nine seat called. The turn was the {7-Spades} and both players checked. The river was the {3-Clubs} and the player in the nine seat bet and Cernuto called. Cernuto's opponent held {K-}{J-} for top pair but Cernuto had {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds} for the over pair to take down the pot.
