Chan-IN

[user76023]

A preflop raising war between Neil Channing and [Removed:335] ends in the former all-in.

Channing is upset that the deck hasn't been changed due to a marked card as he turns over {K-Spades}

, dominated by [Removed:336]'s {K-Diamonds}

.

The board comes {5-Clubs}

and Channing rivers the card to stay alive. [Removed:336] is visibly very frustrated and bangs his hand against a rail, swearing quietly to himself.

What's going to happen next in this topsy-turvy match?

Tabatabai Pushes Devilfish Out

[user76023]

A preflop raising war ends with John Tabatabai pushing all-in preflop just covering Ulliot, the latter tanks for about seven or eight minutes, and folds {5-Diamonds}

face up, hoping for Tabatabai to reciprocate.

He responds, "All I will say is that I would not have folded your hand..."

When Man And Wife Go To War...

[user76023]

"I'm making a ruling that I automatically win. Mwahahah."

During a spare break time moment, Marina beats Thomas Kremser heads-up.

Big TK is kicked out of the Men Club as a result.

Three Matches Remain...

[user76023]

The Jennifer Tilly/Tony G match has just begun, David Steicke has about a 3:1 lead against JC Tran while John Tabatabai has the edge over Devilfish.

Short Stacks Double!

[user76023]

Like In'N'Out Burger, mine's a Double-Double.

First JC Tran doubled, all-in on the turn of a {K-Hearts}

board only needing to fend off another queen against Steicke's {J-Spades}

which he managed easily on the {10-Spades}

river.

Meanwhile on the feature table, the board of {J-Hearts}

saw Devilfish shove and Tabatabai called after some thought. Devilfish showed {10-Diamonds}

and Tabatabai threw his {K-Hearts}

into the muck, now crippled.

Devilfish Beats Tabatabai

[user76023]

After crippling him in the previous hand, Devilfish has eliminated John Tabatabai. The latter was live but behind holding {10-Hearts}

against Ulliot's {A-Clubs}

and despite flopping a straight and flush draw, Tabatabai drew blanks on the turn and river and was knocked out.

G-ed Up

[user76023]

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}

Jennifer Tilly's bet of 250 is raised to 1,000 by Tony G. Tilly calls, but then fires again a bet of 1,000 on the {8-Clubs}

turn.

Tony G just calls this time, before they both check the {7-Hearts}

river. Tilly shows {A-?}

but Tony G's {8-?}

is the winner.

Tran-Crash!

[user76023]

JC Tran ends up all-in for his last few chips.

Tran: {A-Spades}

Steicke:

Board:

Handshakes all around as we're down to just one table, Jennifer Tilly against Tony G.

G Goes Nuts!

[user76023]

Well, not really. Tony G raised preflop to 275 and Jennifer Tilly called but folded to a flop bet on the {7-Clubs}

board.

Tony G showed {J-Clubs}

for the flopped nuts.
