Hands #1-4: Truong Cracks Queens to Double

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Hand #1: David Peters raised to 70,000 in the middle position, earning a call from players in the next two seats: hijack Shawn Buchanan and cutoff David Laka. John Amato came along from the big blind and they went four-way to the {10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop. The action checked to Laka who fired 80,000 and only Peters called.

Both checked the {4-Diamonds} turn before Peters led out 335,000 on the {7-Clubs} river, scooping the pot.

Hand #2: Amato raised in the small blind and took Eric Blair's big blind and ante.

Hand #3: Buchanan made it 75,000 in the third position and David Laka called. Big blind Jeremy Wien joined as well but he folded on the {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{A-Spades} flop where Buchanan continued for 80,000 and Laka called.

The {7-Spades} saw Buchanan check-call 130,000 and the {9-Hearts} river ceased fire. Buchanan showed {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for the winner.

Hand #4: Patrick Truong jammed for 285,000 in the middle position and Blair reshoved on the button. Truong trailed with {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} versus {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, but he hit a king on the {10-Spades}{K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} texture which secured him a double.
