Lodden Active as Ever

Any two cards, baby
Any two cards, baby
Current chip leader Johnny Lodden continues to mix it up, playing most of the hands he's dealt. He's earned varying results, but the bleary-eyed Norwegian (we've heard rumors of quite a wild night at one of the local clubs) is still sitting at the top, despite dropping a few pots in the post-dinner hour, two of them to Michal Zaremba.

On a flop of {K-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {3-Spades}, Lodden checked from the big blind, Zaremba bet 1,200 and Lodden called. The {6-Hearts} on the turn brought checks from both players. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Lodden settled on a bet of 2,650, which Zaremba quickly called. Zaremba's {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts} for top pair bested Lodden's second pair with {Q-Clubs} {10-Clubs} and he dragged the pot.

On a subsequent hand Lodden limped in, Zaremba popped it to 1,175 from the button and Lodden called. Both players checked the {Q-Spades} {9-Clubs} {4-Spades} flop. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Lodden took a stab at the pot, betting 1,750. Zaremba called. The {J-Diamonds} fell on the river and both players checked.

Zaremba turned up pocket eights, while Lodden flashed {5-Spades} {6-Spades} and mucked.
