Olegario All In, Survives

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The board read {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, and Jose Olegario in the big blind position and an opponent from under the gun both checked to the player on the player who bet 600 into a pot around 800.

Olegario and the UTG player both called, and the {2-Hearts} came on the turn. Action checked to the button who bet 2,500 and Olegario stuck in his remaining 2,125 as a call.

The player under the gun folded and the other two turned over their hands. Olegario flipped over {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for a pair of kings and his opponent tabled {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for just ace-high.

The {3-Hearts} hit the felt on the river and Olegario's pair of kings took down the pot.

Kiletto Doubles Before break

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

After a few bad hands Lily Kiletto ended up putting her remaining 1,675 into the middle and she found a caller. The players then tabled their cards and Kiletto would be at risk.

Lily Kiletto: {q-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The flop came down {j-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{7-Spades} and Kiletto had fallen behind. The turn came the {j-Spades} and Kiletto started to stand up out of her seat but then the {q-Clubs} hit on the river. Her queens up took down the pot and gave her a much needed double up.
