"King or Ten Please"

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

In the last hand of Level 11, Xiaowei Lu opened for 2,500 from the cutoff and action folded to Vicki Russel, who had just declared that she was anxious to get down to the cash games. Russel then spiked in her stack of 21,200 from the big blind. Lu asked for a count and then made the call.

Lu: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Russel: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

"King or ten please," Russel asked. The dealer obliged and put out the latter on the {6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop. The {9-Hearts} turn and {7-Hearts} river actually improved Russel to a flush, and that left Lu with just 15,000 after the hand.

"Eight times in a row he raised my big blind," Russel explained.
