$155 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)

Level  4: Blinds 100/200/25 ante

Two players got all their chips in the middle pre-flop.  Rich Soto (Tampa, FL) had pocket Queens and was ahead of his opponent’s AQ.  The board fell out K 3 2 5 7 and Rich took the pot, while his opponent took the walk.  Rich (above) chipped up to about 18k.

Soon after, Rich was all-in on a flop of holding T9 for top two pair.  Tom Gray (Tampa, FL) held pocket Queens this time and was behind, but then the last two fell giving Tom (pictured above) the back-door straight.  Tom doubled up to over 20k while Rich dropped to about 8k.
