Livello 8
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
We caught up with the action on a flop that read 
. Phil Laak checked from the big blind and his opponent on the button bet 1,600. Laak immediately raised to 4,000 and his opponent called.
Both players checked when the 
fell on the turn, but when the 
fell on the river, Laak fired out for 7,250. Laak's opponent tank-called and Laak said, "I played the hand blind."
"Are you serious?"
"Yeah."
Laaks opponent showed

and the second one was a 
, leaving Laak with just ten-high.
Laak is currently sitting with 81,000.
