Speicher and Cheng Busto

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Steve Gross doubled up with {K-}{10-} against the pocket jacks of Michael Marckx and then raised from early position. Eric Speicher moved all in for 65,500 with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and was unable to improve against the {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} of Gross.

Shortly after, Ken Cheng moved all in from early position for what appeared to be 50,000 chips. Marckx was on the button and didn't pay attention, throwing in the chips for a standard raise. The floor was called and he could decide whether to call or forfeit his raising chips.

Marckx called and the players in the blinds folded. It was the {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} of Cheng and the {A-Spades}{6-Spades} of Marckx, the {6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{5-Spades} board gave Marckx two pair and he recovered the losses from before.
