Lera wins over Falcon


Rick Lera, Michael Falcon, and a player in the hijack seat engaged in a pot that we witnessed at the flop of 5 9 7. Lera began the round with a check to the hj who bet 35o. Falcon called from the cutoff seat, but when action moved back to Lera, he raised it up to a total of 1200. The hj player called, then now Faclcon got aggressive and re-raised to 2,850. Both players called. At the turn of 6, they all slowed down and checked to each other. Then on the river of J, Lera led out for 2,200, hj folded, and Falcon called. Lera won with his 7 6 two pair against Falcon’s K 9 pair.
