A Good Flop, A Good Turn, A Great River

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
  • Bruce "Hammer" Swart just took down a hand on the flop. A player in middle position raised to 500 and Mandy Caffee raised to 1,200. Hammer called from the small blind as did the original raiser.
    "I'm terrified as to what your hand is," said Caffee in response to Hammer's call.
    When the flop came {3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Hammer bet 2,000, both the raiser and Caffee folded quickly.
  • Gary Herstein shoved over a bet of 3,875. Herstein's all in made it 15,125 to go on a board of {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts} and his opponent folded.
  • Vue Thao raised his opponent on the river to 11,000. His opponent led out for 5,000 after an ace hit the river. Thao raised to 11,000 and his opponent called. Thao showed {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} and won the pot.
