Two for Johnston

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

David Johnston got his last 27,200 in preflop from the small blind against Ricky Guan in the big blind. Johnston was in great shape with nines against against fours, and a board of {8-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Spades} kept him best.

The next hand, Carlos Chadha opened for 3,400 and Johnston made it 7,000 on the button. Chadha called, and the two checked a {10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop. Chadha bet 4,200 on the {2-Spades} turn, and Johnston called. Both checked the {k-Clubs}, and Chadha tabled sevens. Johnston got there on the river with {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, though.
