And the Crowd Goes Wild

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

A rupture of applause went through the poker room to compliment the explosion of cheers heard outside on the casino floor. A strong contingent of LSU fans flooded all the bars and restaurants in the casino. Plenty of "L-S-U!" chants were heard.

Wiese Hits The Rail

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

We missed the details of Frank Wiese's bust hand, but caught up with him afterward to learn that he moved his last 6,000 in with {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} on a {8-}{10-}{Q-}{X-} board that had two diamonds. The river was an {A-} and his opponent paired his ace and sent Wiese to the rail.

Tryba Loses a Little

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Four players including Chris Tryba saw a flop of {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. One player led out for 1,725 and another got out of the way.

"Seems reasonable," Tryba exclaimed as he tossed in a call. The remaining player folded leaving Tryba and his opponent heads up going to the turn. Fourth street came {9-Diamonds} and Tryba's opponent fired out 3,025. Tryba quietly mucked his hand, dropping down to about 30,000 in chips.

Markevicius Doubles on Sick River

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

We were across the room for most of the hand, but a big all in on the river caught our attention. The board read {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {A-Spades}.

David Markevicius moved all in on the river and was called by Ronnie Sewell.

Sewell: {K-Hearts} {J-Spades}
Markevicius: {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}

Sewell's turned full house fell when the ace came on the river giving Markevicius a bigger full house.

Kyle Cartwright
Kyle Cartwright

With a flop of {10-Spades}{A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, Kyle Cartwright's opponent bet out 1,600 and Cartwright made the call. Fourth street paired the board, bringing the {10-Hearts}. Both men checked and the river came the {K-Clubs}. Cartwright checked for a third time and his opponent tossed out 3,000.

Cartwright made the call, but was disheartened to find his opponent table {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for a rivered straight. Cartwright shook his head and gave a wry smile, tossing his cards to the muck in the process. He's currently sitting on about 29,500.
