Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante
Alec Torelli and Bruce Russell
Alec Torelli and Bruce Russell

A three-bet pot to the {6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop resulted in the check of Alec Torelli in the cutoff and Bruce Russell made it 2,800 to go from one seat over on the button. Torelli called and checked again the {J-Hearts} on the turn. Russell made it 4,800 to go and Torelli gave it brief consideration before sending his cards into the muck.

"You want to see? Aces are good," Russell said to the player in the four seat and further built his growing tower of chips. Other notables that have increased their stacks recently include Randall Emmett, Marius Pospiech, and Per Hildebrand.
