Lawrence Pileggi

Over at Table 29, Lawrence Pileggi and Jonathan Ivy got into a battle on a board of Jx 7x 6x. Ivy bet the flop and Pileggi flat-called. After the 9x on the turn, Pileggi bet 90,000, and it was now Ivy's turn to flat call.

Pileggi then bet 140,000 after the river, and Ivy immediately called, revealing two pair, Jx's and 9x's. Pileggi turned up Jx 10x, showing he had the lead on the flop, but was beaten on the turn.

Two hands later, Pileggi was all in with suited KQ against John Lakatosh's pocket Qx's, but this time he made his hand on the river when a Kx spiked and doubled him up.
