Kihara Loses Some to Glaser; Sternheimer Chips Up

Level 19 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Benny Glaser raised from under the gun and Naoya Kihara then three-bet in the small blind for Glaser to call.

On the first draw, both players took one new card and Kihara bet, Glaser called. Kihara took one new card and Glaser then patted as Kihara checked before he received the new card. A bet by Glaser ended the hand right there.

No-Limit Hold'em

In a limped battle of the blinds, Philip Sternheimer bet the {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop for 60,000 and Glaser called in the big blind. The {3-Hearts} turn brought another bet worth 130,000 by Sternheimer and Glaser gave him a brief staredown before folding.

Over on the other table, John Racener raised it up for the vast majority of his stack in NLHE at least three times and managed to steal the blinds and big blind ante.
