Le Up Against Black Aces
Max Le was in the cutoff, and bet 4,500 into four players who still had hands to consider. The button made everyone's decision easier by making it 12,000 to continue. Three players folded back to Le, who called to see a flop.
Both players eyed the first three cards carefully 
. With a pot of 27,000, Le checked it to the aggressor, who cooly laid down 3 red chips for a bet of 15,000. Once again, Le called.
The 
came on the turn, and this time It was Le who bet, and he bet it all, another 67,000.
His opponent, who was sizing him up behind very dark sunglasses, threw in a single chip to signify a call.
Button: 
Max Le: 
With a pair on the flop, Le only continued to improve when his pair became two pair. The river would pair the board and give the button top two pair, but it was the 
to improve Le's holding to a full house.
He more than doubled up, and became one of the largest stacks in the room.
