In early position, Jeremy Rafalowicz came in with a raise to 20,000. All the way around in the small blind, Jason Lester made the call to see a flop.

It showed up {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

, and both men checked. The turn brought the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

and all of the action. Lester checked, and Rafalowicz bet 27,000. Lester then made it 77,000 and Rafalowicz moved all in for a total of 138,000. Lester quickly called.

Rafalowicz turned over {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Spades}

, but Lester had him dead to a chop with the {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

for Broadway. The river was a meaningless {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

, and that's the end of Rafalowicz's tournament. Lester is up to 327,000.
