Dai Doubles Through Ragozzini

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

On a Q765 board Victor Dai and Blake Lockwood checked to Sean Ragozzini who bet 1,500.

Dai check-raised all in for 17,300 and Lockwood folded. Ragozzini called.

Victor Dai: K4 All in
Blake Lockwood: QJ

Dai had plenty of draws up against the top pair of his opponent, but a K was the most straight forward way for him to win the pot and double up.

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

On a Q634J board Robert Sabados checked a pot worth 30,000 to Daniel Veljkovic who bet 11,000.

Sabados called and Veljkovic opened 66 for a set. Sabados curiously turned over Q4 and the pair exchanged some brief words.

"I thought you had 5x6x," explained Sabados as Veljkovic stacks his chips.
