Bernard Lee Doubles Up

Bernard Lee raised to 3,300 from late position and was called by both Nick Kamen in the cutoff and Mazen Nesheiwat in the big blind. The flop came 5-4-2 and Nesheiwat checked. Lee fired 7,600 and Kamen made the call. Nesheiwat then moved all in and Lee moved all in on top. Kamen folded, saying he had jacks. The players turned over:

Lee [Ac][As]
Nesheiwat 6-5

The turn was another deuce and the river was a queen. Lee's aces held up to eliminate Nesheiwat and boost Lee's stack to around 140,000.

Mike Leah Makes a Big Call, However...

Mike Leah raised to 3,000 preflop from the button and was called by Lokesh Garg in the small blind. The flop came [Ac][Tc][Ts] and Garg checked. Leah fired 2,300 and Garg made the call. The turn was the [6s] and both players checked. The river came the [3s] and Garg bet out 7,000.

Leah went into the tank for a few moments. He only had about 23,000 total but tossed in the 7,000 in chips. Garg said "Good call" and turned up [Ks][Qc]. Leah flipped up [Jh][3h] for two pair, tens and threes, and raked in the pot.

Despite making that great call, a still short stacked Leah was knocked out just a few hands later.

Jonathan Jaffe just doubled up through Mirsad Kovaci early on in today's action. Jaffe had pocket aces against Kovaci's pocket fives on an A-9-x-9-5 board.
