Racener On the Ropes

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Ryan D'Angelo has John Racener on the ropes. We just saw the dealer ship a sizable pot to D'Angelo and Racener was felted - but had one lammer left. He cashed it in and D'Angelo still has both his rebuy lammers available.

Ben Lamb

Ben Lamb, the 2011 WSOP POY, is playing Jim Collopy in his round two match, and showing the kind of aggression that carried him to great success last year.

He three-bet a Collopy button raise and then c-bet for 750 on a {2-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Spades} flop. Collopy melted away.
