Lentz Rivers Two Pair
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Brook North opened for 10,000 and got three callers: Richard Gress in middle position, Bruce Lentz in cutoff and Julian Whigham in the big blind.
The flop came 7♠K♥9♣. After action was passed to him, Gress went all in for 40,000 and got called by Lentz. Whigham and North got out of the way.
Richard Gress: K♠Q♠ 
Bruce Lentz: K♣J♣
Gress was ahead with the superior kicker but the river J♥ fell, giving Lentz two pair for the win and the pot.
