Brown Sticking Around

All right, we're going to guess at the action here, since we walked up when most of the bets were already pulled in. From the positions, it looks like Sam Stein (cutoff) was the opening raiser to 6,000. On the button, Alex Gomes seems to have flatted, and Chad Brown moved all in for another 12,300 from the big blind. When it came back to Stein, he made it 38,000 to go, and Gomes reraised all in over the top. Stein quickly folded, and Brown jokingly said, "I call!" as the cards were turned up:

Brown: {A-Spades} {J-Clubs}
Gomes: {7-Diamonds} {7-Spades}

"Good luck, Chad," Gomes gave the friendly wish. Brown did indeed find some luck as the board ran out {3-Hearts} {J-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {5-Hearts} to earn him the triple up. He's all the way over 50,000 now, and Stein slips to 105,000. Gomes just about broke even on that exchange -- in fact, it looks like he picked up about 6,000 from Stein. He's got about 140,000.
