Csik Gets There

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Chris Csik, Chris Tryba, and a third player took a flop of {8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Csik led out for 750, his two opponents called, and the turn was the {5-Clubs}.

Csik tossed out another 2,500, this time only Tryba called, and the river was the {6-Diamonds}, Csik emptied the chamber, firing a third and final bullet worth 5,500, and Tryba again called. Csik revealed {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} - much to this dismay of Tryba - and raked in the pot.

Wallace Loses One, Wallace Wins One

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Sean Wallace fired out a bet of 550 on a flop of {4-Spades}{3-Spades}{k-Clubs}, and only one of two opponents called. The pair checked after the {q-Clubs} fell on the turn, and the {j-Diamonds} completed the board. The two knuckled again, and Wallace's opponent earned the pot with {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of threes.

A few hands later, Wallace check-called a bet of 1,900 on a flop of {10-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{j-Diamonds} from another opponent. The turn was the {5-Spades}, the two checked, and the river was the {a-Spades}. Wallace led out for 3,500, his opponent called, and Wallace dragged the pot with {q-Spades}{j-Hearts} for trip jacks.
