Big Pot Action

MarcC

A huge pot just occured between Jimmy Shultz and Vinny Vinh. Shultz opened with a raise from the button and Vinh called from the big blind. The flop came...

{A-Hearts}

Vinh led out for 30,00 and Shultz called before the turn came...

{10-Diamonds}

This is where it got interesting. Vinh led out once more for 60,000 before Shultz raised to 120,000. Vinh then bumped it up to 180,000 before Shultz capped it at 240,000. Vinh called so the turn came...

{9-Clubs}

There was so much money in the pot now that any bet had to be called and that's what happened. Vinh knew he was beat but the damage was done on the turn. Shultz called Vinh bets and flipped over {J-Diamonds}

.

Vinh showed {A-?}

and has it all to do again after he gets back from break.

Vinh is Bubbling

MarcC

Zac Fellows raises from the button and both players call before a flop comes...

{2-Clubs}

It's checked to Fellows who bets and only Vinh calls before the turn...

{10-Spades}

Both players check so we head to the river...

{J-Hearts}

Vinh leads out for a 60,000 bet. Fellows calls and mucks when he sees Vinh's {A-?}

.

Vinny Vinh is very animated at the moment and it's gotten to the level where he has now been officially warned about his conduct and asked to calm down.
