Marchese Marches On

Simon Higgins, David Lawrence and Thomas Marchese all saw a flop of {Q-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} and none of them seemed particularly in love with it, as they all checked.

Come the {2-Spades} turn, though, Higgins bet out 700. Lawrence passed, but Marchese called it. What Marchese had will never be known, though, as both players checked the {3-Diamonds} river and Marchese just mucked as Higgins turned over {10-Diamonds} {8-Spades} for two pair. Marchese is in absolutely no danger, though, and is currently among the chip leaders on 18,700.
