Double Barrel Works for Le

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Two weeks ago, WSOP bracelet winner Allan Le came close to doubling his title collection in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Event. Le finished in third place, earning $78,372.

Now he's sitting in the ten-times larger buy-in PLO event, and his seat assignment could be much better. Sitting to Le's left is Chris George, one of the bigger stacks in the room.

However, just now Le picked to fight George in the only hand per round when George has the position disadvantage, sitting in the small blind. With 6,900 in the pot preflop, Le and George saw the {Q-Spades}{K-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop.

George checked to Le, who bet out 5,000 from the button. George called fairly quickly.

The turn {2-Hearts} was again checked by George, and Le paused for about a minute. He reached for his chips, and grabbed a chunk with his left hand. Then he stopped moving, amending his required amount, and finally fired 13,500.

Then it was George who took a minute before letting his hand go.
