Colman Shoves and Shows the Bluff

Level 5 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Dominik Nitsche and Daniel Colman each put in 38,000 preflop before the dealer fanned the {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. Nitsche was first and checked. Colman bet 35,000, and Nitsche made the call.

The turn was the {7-Spades}, and Nitsche checked again. Colman bet 90,000, and Nitsche made the call.

The river was the {5-Clubs}, and Nitsche checked with about 260,000 in chips in his stack. Colman moved all in for about the same amount, and Nitsche tank-folded.

Colman allowed Nitsche to pick one, and he turned over the {Q-Diamonds}. Colman then showed the {8-Diamonds} to go with it for a missed draw.

Mercier Takes One from Polk

Level 5 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Despite the noise the two made on social media last week, Doug Polk and Jason Mercier have remained pretty quiet at the table even though they're seated right next to one another and have been battling all day long. Just now, the two played the following pot.

On the {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Spades} flop, Mercier bet 11,800. Polk made the call, and then Andrew Robl folded.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} to pair the board, and Mercier bet 27,500. Polk called, and the river completed the board with the {K-Hearts}. Both players checked.

Mercier showed the {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} for two pair, and Polk mucked his hand.
