Preflop, Terry Lade, who wants us to call him Steve Lade, raises to 5,000 and Leonid Yanovski reraises to 22,500. Lade calls.

The flop is {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and Leonid checks. Lade is all in for more than 100,000 and Leonid goes into the tank.

"I don't want you to call," says Steve. "I will take that little pot and go."

Another player at the table calls the clock, and with a single second to go, Leonid calls. He shows {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

to the

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

of Lade.

The turn and river are {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

and Leonid is eliminated. Lade now has 300,000.
