One for Ashton

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We picked up the action on the turn with the board showing {4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} with roughly 23,000 already in the middle of the table. Matthew Ashton was first to act from the big blind and he checked it over to Mike Lancaster who decided to check behind.

The river was the {3-Clubs} and this time Ashton led out with a bet of 14,000. Lancaster tanked for a bit but eventually decided to fold. The former Poker Players Championship winner's stack is still down from where he started today but picking up this pot sent Ashton back in the right direction.
