Juanda Crippled

Juanda raised pre-flop to 650, he is called by unknown player, The board comes Kh Jh 8s, it is checked to john who bets 1350, he in turn is called. Then the Qd appears, Small blind then fires out with 2000, John thinks and then calls, River 4c changes nothing. John has to then call 3100 more to see the 10s 9s that takes a good pot from him. John still has 19K in front of him.

Brandon & Gavin Show

Gavin Smith
Gavin Smith
Brandon Schaeffer and Gavin Smith are seated side by side on Table 6. On my last pass by Gavin said: "I am getting my ass handed to me by the whole table but Brandon has all the chips. We haven't played a hand but I lose them everywhere else on the table and then he collects them on the next hand."

Brandon has 42K. Gavin has: "Less than that, if I had another couple of hundred I would have 10K."

The turn was a blank and both players checked. The river was a {8-Clubs} and Schaefer bets out and was called. His opponent angrily mucked as Schaefer went up to 42K.
