The flop came A♦10♥J♥ and after Cardell checked to the player in early position, he bet out 2,000. Both the player in the cutoff and Cardell made the call.
On the turn was the 3♥ and again Cardell checked to the early position player, who bet 3,000. Both players again called to see a river.
After the 2♥ on the river, Cardell went all in for 3,000 and got both players to fold, allowing him to take down the pot.

There was a limp from early position when Steve Nickerson shoved all in for 8,400. The action folded to the player in the big blind who called, and the limper folded.
Steve Nickerson: J♠J♥
Big Blind: A♥K♠
The window card was the A♣ but the 2♦J♣ followed it which prompted Nickerson to punch the air in delight. It wasn't over though as the Q♠ turn improve the big blind to a Broadway draw, but the 6♠ river was a brick which meant Nickerson doubled up.

Met Barry Greenstein but the Ace on the turn (not river) that hit my AK cost me dearly to the bb who called with K10 to my raise. 😫
