Level 22

Mike Kosowski opened with a raise from middle position, and it folded back around to Patrick Houchins who called from the big blind.
The flop came 
. Houchins checked, and Kosowski tossed out six purple (10,000) chips for a bet of 60,000. Houchins then check-raised to 160,000, and after a minute or so of consideration, Kosowski stepped aside.
Houchins flipped over his cards as he dragged the pot --

Houchins is up to 890,000 now, while Kosowski has 795,000 as we draw close to the dinner break.
