Dvoress Takes Early Lead
Level 5
: 600/1,200, 180 ante
Patrick "Pepsi_zero" Semrau raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and Daniel Dvoress called in the big blind to see the 
flop. Semrau led out for 2,000 and Dvoress quickly raised to 7,625.
Semrau called, a 
landed as a turn card and Dvoress pushed in 32,200. Semrau hit the tank and in the end, he elected to shoved his 188,179 stack into the middle.
Dvoress snap-called his last 76,000 and the two tabled their hands. Semrau showed 
for a pair of nickels with a straight draw but he was only drawing to a chop after Dvoress showed 
, giving him a flopped straight.
The 
river cemented the pot for Dvoress who secured a completed double through Semrau.
