Fielder Swats a Shorty

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Jeff Fielder
Jeff Fielder

On a {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop, Jeff Fielder bet 3,400 against two opponents. The player in the cutoff moved in for about 8,000, and the big blind folded. Fielder quickly called.

Fielder: {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

The turn was a {6-Diamonds}, but the river {a-Spades} gave Fielder the straight he needed.

"Gross," his opponent muttered, standing up in disgust. "Gross."

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Rob Wazwaz had 8,200 in front of him on the button on a {q-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} flop, and his opponent who had bet 3,000 in middle position raised to 23,000. Wazwaz put his 25,200 stack in, and his opponent called.

Wazwaz: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Hartmann Doubles

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Tony Hartmann
Tony Hartmann

Jared Mohnen opened for a raise to 2,600 and then reluctantly called the shove of Tony Hartmann, who had 13,000.

Mohnen: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Hartmann: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The flop brought {10-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, giving Hartmann a set and leaving Mohnen in need of running cards. The {7-Diamonds} closed out those possibilities.

Boone Gets New Life

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A player limped in from an early position and then Rob Wazwaz made it about 5,000 to go. Steve Lillehaug shoved all in on the button with a short stack, and Jim Boone did likewise in the small blind. The limper shoved as well, and Wazwaz folded {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} face-up.

Lillehaug: {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Boone: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Early position: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Boone got jiggy after the {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop gave him a set, and the {5-Hearts} and {7-Spades} kept him best with a boat. "Three-finger" Jim collected the sizable pot and announced he was on the comeback.

"Same Old Liu"

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Peixin Liu
Peixin Liu

A multi-way pot saw a board of {7-Spades}{9-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, and the small blind checked. Muneer Ahmed bet 4,500, Matt Kirby folded, and Peixin Liu called on the button. The small blind folded, and the river came an {8-Spades}. Ahmed checked, and Liu bet 10,000. Ahmed called after about 30 seconds.

"You were ahead," Liu said, turning over {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, knowing he had gotten there on the river.

"I don't know why you always chase like that," Ahmed said, shaking his head. "Same old Liu."
