Event 18: Power Poker

$2500 + $200 Double Play NL Championship   

Shane Gosline (Bensalem, PA) went to the flop with Matt Matros, on his immediate left in the hijack.  The flop was T T 5 with two diamonds.  Shane checked, Matt bet 25k, Shane check-raised to 70K, and Matt announced he was all-in (having Shane covered).

Shane took a few seconds, then surrendered.  Matt's now up to ~285k.

'Lucky' Lee Kirsch was all-in pre-flop with pocket 8s against a player with AK.  The dealer burned and the door-card on the flop was an Ace. 

It looked like curtains for Lucky Lee, but remember the trend today?  Pairs win the flips. 

An 8 appeared on the river, giving Lee a set and saving him.  He doubled up to ~80k.
