Eric "E-Fro" Froehlich moved out to an early lead against Mike Sexton, prompting the WPT host to ask, "How can you make that many hands?"

"I'm very lucky," Froehlich said.

He was perhaps a bit lucky when Sexton, holding {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

, made two pair on the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

flop. Froehlich held {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{7-Hearts}

for top pair, and when the {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

hit on the turn it gave him a higher two pair that doomed Sexton. Sexton moved in, Froehlich called, and advances to Round Three.
