Three Straights, Only One Wins

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

With the board showing {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{J-Spades}, Lauren Blase bet 1,600 into a pot of approximately 4,000. The player to her immediate left raised it to 3,200. Jody Nittler put in another raise making it 8,000 to go. Blase moved all in as did the player to her immediate left. Nittler wasted no time in announcing that he too was all in.

Blase and the player to her immediate left both turned over jack high straights with Blase holding {10-Spades}{8-Spades} and her opponent {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. Nittler also had a straight but his was a king high straight as he held {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. The river was an inconsequential {7-Diamonds} and Nittler delivered the double knock out.

Kerstetter Eliminated by Reason

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

We didn't see the action but Jamie Kerstetter got the last of her chips in on a flop of {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} against Benjamin Reason holding {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for an open-ended straight draw. Reason had {10-Hearts}{9-Spades} for top two pair.

Kerstetter picked up some more outs on the {6-Clubs} turn. Any club, king, or eight would keep her alive but the river was the {7-Spades} and the gracious Kerstetter wished everyone luck.

Hindman Crippled

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player in early position opened to 1,600 and was called by one player in middle position. Casey Hindman moved all in for a little more than 17,500 total and the original raiser made the call for slightly less. The other player got out of the way and Hindman was racing with his {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} against his opponent's {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs} to keep Hindman in the lead but the {K-Diamonds} on the turn changed that. No miracle jack on the river as it was the {A-Diamonds} and Hindman was left with just a few chips.
