Ziadeh FInds the Call, Ethridge Has a Big Draw

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ramon Ziadeh
Ramon Ziadeh

A big pot was brewing on the turn between Elizabeth Ethridge and Ramon Ziadeh. The board was showing {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}.

With about 180,000 in the pot, Ethridge moved all in from the small blind for 201,000. In early position, Ziadeh started to talk out loud.

"You flop a set? That's about the only thing I can put you on," said Ziadeh. "You ready to go?" he asked. He eventually put in the call.

"Every draw in the world," said Ethridge.

Elizabeth Ethridge: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Ramon Ziadeh: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Ziadeh needed to dodge a lot of outs, but the {9-Clubs} was a safe one to give him the win and send Ethridge to the payout table.

Lagos' Nines Hold

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A player moved all in from middle position for about 70,000 and found one caller, Nicholas Lagos in late position. The rest of the table folded and the two were off to a runout.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Nicholas Lagos: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The flop came out {10-}{7-}{6-} and Lagos now no longer wanted to hit a set. A {q-} turn and {2-} river kept him in the lead to swallow his opponent's stack.

Action arrived on the flop with two players fighting for a pot. The board showed {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

Nicholas Lagos bet 70,000 from the big blind. His opponent, Stan Webb on the button, moved all in for 342,000.

"You want to see what luck looks like?" asked Webb. He then proceeded to turn over {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. "Oh no, I misread that," said Webb.

"Really?" asked his neighbor.

"Oh, yeah. You think I'd show that?" replied Webb.
