Lim Gets Some Back From Loeser

Level 15 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Manig Loeser raised to 90,000 and Michael Lim called out of the big blind. The flop of {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} was checked through and Lim bet the {3-Hearts} turn for 190,000, Loeser folded and was shown the {9-Clubs}.

Lim limped in from the small blind and Loeser checked. The flop came {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Lim bet 55,000, Loeser called. After the {10-Spades} turn, Lim made it 135,000 to go and Loeser called before facing a bet of 260,000 on the {J-Spades} river. Loeser let go and the pot was sent to Lim.

Loeser raised to 90,000 on the button and Mustapha Kanit shoved for 470,000 in the small blind to rake in the pot without resistance.

Lim raised to 120,000 in the small blind and Loeser called. The flop of {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} brought a quick continuation bet of Lim and that shut down all further action.

Loeser Doubles Into Commanding Lead

Level 15 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Manig Loeser defended his big blind against a raise by Jack Salter and the duo checked through the {J-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop.

Loeser doubled for 933,000 and jumped into a commanding lead while Salter once again has to rebound from a short stack.
