Blind Versus Blind Action

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Terry Jordon straddled with a raise to 1,000 from under the gun without having looked at his cards and Ben Morrison three-bet to 2,000. They agreed to get it in as Jordon had just 7,000 left and jammed, Morrison called. Once the cards were turned over, Chris Da-Silva and the other players at the table could not believe what showdown was about to take place.

Terry Jordon: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Ben Morrison: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

The board came {j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Jordon was drawing dead on the turn.

Winstone Busts Sapiano

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante
Albert Sapiano
Albert Sapiano

Robert "Bobby" James had taken a piece of the stack of Albert Sapiano but it was Tom Winstone that dealt the final blow in spectacular fashion. They got it in after the {7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{a-Clubs} turn and Sapiano was ahead with {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for two pair, as Winstone only held the {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for a pair and gutshot.

Winstone needed a four, five or seven to score the knockout and he did so thanks to the {7-Clubs} river.

"So sick," Sapiano said on his way to the rail as the 22,100 of Winstone had him covered.
