Level 5 : 200/400, 0 ante

Eugene Lee opened from early position to 1,400 and his neighbor Nathaniel Greenwald re-raised him to 4800, the rest of the table folded back around to Lee and he made the call.

Eugene Lee: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Nathaniel Greenwald: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

Fowler Doubles

Level 4 : 200/300, 0 ante

In a 5-way pot, on a flop of {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, Greg Fishberg bet 1500 from the small blind and Paul Fowler re-raised him all-in putting himself at risk. The action folded back around to Fishberg who quickly made the call.

Greg Fishberg: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Paul Fowler: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Fishberg was winning for the moment with two pairs kings and fours, the {7-Diamonds} gave Fowler more outs as he picked up a flush draw and the river was the {10-Spades} counterfeiting Fishberg. Fowler successfully doubled up with aces and tens.
