Many Chips for Damany

Bill Chen raised from the hijack seat, Paul Damany raised from the cutoff, and both the button and big blind called, as did Chen.

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. It checked to Chen who bet, Damany raised, the button folded, the BB called, and Chen called, too. The turn was the {8-Hearts}. The players checked to Damany who bet, and both called.

The river brought the {4-Clubs}. It checked again to Damany who again bet. The BB folded, and Chen, with what appeared some reluctance, made the call.

"Two pair," said Damany, showing his {K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. "That's good," said a smiling Chen, tapping the felt with the side of his fist.

Both Chen and Damany have big stacks at the moment. Chen has about 38,000, and Damany 41,000.
