Daniel Moran bet 8,000 from the cutoff on a flop of A?J?5? and Ching Da Wu raised to 20,000 in middle position. Moran called and the 10? fell on the turn.
Wu then moved all in for 45,000 and Moran snap-called. Wu showed J?J? for a set, while Moran had A?J? for top two pair.
"How many coolers are there going to be?" Moran said dejectedly as the Q? completed the board on the river, securing the double up for Wu and leaving Moran as an extreme short stack.

Jeremy Becker opened to 4,000 from early position before Louise Francoeur three-bet to 11,000 from middle position. In the cutoff, Michael Lang cold-called and Becker also came along.

Michael Lang: A?K?
Louise Francoeur: A?Q?
Both players flopped top pair but Lang's kicker was better. Nothing changed on the 6?10? runout as Lang got the full double at the expense of Francoeur, who still keeps a healthy stack.
