Marchese vs. Stein

Level 7 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Tom Marchese has had the lead in this match for the majority of play. Until recently, that is, when Sam Stein took down a big pot with {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} on a jack-high board with his second pair of nines. Marchese then doubled through on the very next hand with {a-}{7-} versus Stein's {j-}{10-} and closed the gap.
