Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
One player doing steadily well in these mid levels is Peter Roche, rarely spotted at the tournament felt, but up over 65k and proving the point that he's on the up by winning a strangely large pot on the flop right as we passed his table.
Friedrich Paul Raz had started off with an early-position limp, raised to 1,200 by Artur Wasek. Small blind Roche repopped it to 5,000 and rather surprisingly, perhaps, received two calls.
The flop: 
. Roche instantly bet out 10k even. Raz sort of slap-folded his hand with a sigh of apparent annoyance and Wasek soon followed suit.
ended up on their backs as the pot went to Roche, a legitimate hand indeed.
