Event 20: Eng Pulls Ahead

$1500 + $150 NL

Gordon Eng called on the button, then Alan Sternberg raised another 35k from the big blind. Gordon then re-raised another 90k on top of that. Alan called and the flop came Q J 9. Alan checked, Gordon bet 140k, and Alan called. Turn was a 5 and the third spade. Both checked. River was an offsuit 3 and again both checked. Alan showed AT with one spade. Gordon showed A3 off and took the pot with a pair of 3s.

Alan opened for 55k and Gordon called. The flop was J 7 6 with two spades. Gordon checked, Alan bet 55k, and Gordon called. Turn was a 4 and the third spade. Both checked. River was an offsuit Ace. Gordon bet 200k. Alan gave it a little thought, then called. Gordon showed 64 of diamonds for two pair. Alan mucked. With that pot, Gordon claimed a slight chip advantage over Alan.
