Coburn Doubles

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Nesbitt Coburn rivered quads.
Nesbitt Coburn rivered quads.

We found Nesbitt Coburn with an all-in wager of 8,250 in front of him against a tanking opponent. With the board reading {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Coburn's opponent called after thinking long and hard.

Coburn: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Coburn's set was ahead, but he could still lose if his opponent caught up with a diamond flush on the river. It was Coburn who improved, however, when the dealer burned and turned the {q-Hearts} to give him quads.

Payne Doubles with Flush

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ken Payne pushed all in for 9,050 after a player checked to him on a final board of {4-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}. Payne's opponent made the call into the large pot, and Payne shrugged.

"I've only got the jack," Payne said, showing {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. His opponent could only shake his head, showing {j-Hearts}{10-Spades} before mucking.

Pankow Doubles Through Fielder

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

We found Michael Pankow contemplating an all-in wager for his stack against Jeff Fielder against a short stack who had already shoved for about 5,800. With the board reading {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}, Pankow made the call for his last 10,000 or so.

Pankow: {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Fielder: {q-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Short stack: {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Pankow was in good shape against two draws, and the {4-Clubs} and {a-Diamonds} completed neither.

Lillehaug Over 60,000

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Steve Lillehaug, on the button, three-bet to about 7,600 after a raise to 2,100 and a call from middle position and the cutoff, respectively. The original raiser shoved for just a few hundred more, and both of his opponents called, though Lillehaug attempted to shove but wasn't allowed.

After the {4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, Lillehaug put his opponent all in after the player checked, and he folded.

Lillehaug: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Lillehaug was in good shape with his jacks, and the dealer burned and turned the {8-Clubs}. The player who folded the flop expressed disgust, saying he folded eights, and the {3-Spades} river shipped Lillehaug the pot.
