Hand #87 - Jason Lester Doubles Through Joe Patrick

Hand #87 - Joe Patrick has the button in seat 5, Lester raises under the gun to 130,000, Patrick reraises from the button to 430,000, and Lester calls all in for 290,000 with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}. Patrick shows {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Lester will need to improve to stay alive and continue defending his title.

The flop comes {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, and Patrick retains the lead. The turn card pairs the board with the {2-Diamonds}, and Lester needs an ace or a jack to survive.

The river card is the {J-Spades}, and Lester spikes a pair of jacks on the river to double his stack to 640,000 in chips.

Hand #85

Hand #85 - Jason Lester has the button in seat 1, and everyone folds to Patrick, giving him a walk in the big blind.

Hand #84 - Cunningham vs. Lisandro in a 740,000 Pot

Hand #84 - Jeff Lisandro has the button in seat 9, he raises to 80,000, and Cunningham calls from the big blind. The flop comes {K-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}, Cunningham checks, Lisandro bets 80,000, and Cunningham calls. The turn card is the {7-Clubs}, Cunningham checks, Lisandro bets 200,000, and Cunningham thinks for a minute before he calls. This is a huge hand, with 740,000 already in the pot.

The river card is the {J-Spades}, and both players check. Lisandro shows A-K offsuit for top pair, top kicker, but Cunningham shows {Q-Spades}{7-Spades} for the queen-high flush. Cunningham wins the pot.

Blinds Increase

Lost in the commotion of Travis Rice's elimination (he had a *lot* of fans) was a blind increase before Hand #80. The blinds are now 20,000-40,000, and players can either limp for 40,000 or raise to 80,000-140,000.
