Aoukar Chips Up; O'Kearney Loses Some

"We already have some fun here with a double straddle," someone at the table of Michael Del Vecchio joked while Pierre Aoukar and Paul Wilcock were still involved in a hand. Aoukar bet the flop for 500 and did so again for 500 on the turn, which Wilcock called. The river completed the board and Aoukar bet 4,000, Wilcock came along and mucked his face up after being shown for the better two pair by Aoukar.

One table over, Dara O'Kearney took a hit. Adam Monahan bet the river for 1,800 into a pot of 4,500 and O'Kearney called, then mucked after his opponent flashed for a straight. O'Kearney won his entry in a satellite last night after a deep run in the Accumulator Side Event.
