Leah Razzed

Level 9

Razz

We watched Mike Leah get crippled in a Razz hand where he made two pair on seventh to double up a short-stacked opponent. It left him with just 175 chips, but he quintupled up on the following hand, back into contention. He worked it up to 1,300 the last time we walked past.

He's out of contention again. With a deuce showing, Leah completed, and Jimmy Fricke raised with a {6-} up. Jonathan Green called with a deuce, and Leah reraised all in for 1,300. Fricke and Green called with live action between them.

Leah: (x-x) / {2-}{6-}{k-}{10-} / (x)
Fricke: (x-x) / {6-}{q-}{7-}{4-} / (x)
Green: (x-x) / {2-}{4-}{8-}{4-} / (MUCK)

Green bet fourth and fifth streets with Fricke calling along, and Fricke took the lead with a bet of his own on sixth. Green folded, and Leah got to see what he was up against. The news wasn't good as Fricke tabled {2x5x} for the made seventy-six. Leah's {AxJx} was drawing dead, and he's been eliminated here near the end of the first level.

Fricke is up to 37,000 as he stacks those chips.
