Level 22
: 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Kenneth Rios came into the day with 70,000 chips and had lost a hand or two before getting it all in for his last 55,000. It folded to David Lappin in the big blind who called.
David Lappin: 
Kenneth Rios: 
The flop was a good one for Rios, coming 
giving him trips. Lappin's only hope was backdoor straight or house outs, and the 
runout didn't help him and Rios doubled up.
