Stephen Green now has some chips to work with. Over the last few hands he has taken a couple small pots off Bruce Mead.
Green opened on the first hand to 47,000 and Mead defended in the big blind. The flop came 
and Mead had already checked in the dark. Green bet out for 77,000 and Mead folded.
The next hand: Green opened again, this time for 53,000 and Mead called from the small blind. The board was all hearts 
and this time, Mead saw the flop before he checked. The result was the same as Green bet out 50,000 and Mead folded.
