Duke Kicks Ramdin's Ace

Stud-8:

A hand between Annie Duke and Victor Ramdin was bet on all streets to the river. On the river, Ramdin checked his board of {A-?} {A-?} {10-?} {4-?}. Duke, showing a board of {2-?} {8-?} {K-?} {A-?} then proceeded to bet and Ramdin made the call.

Duke flipped over ({A-?} {5-?} {7-?}) for a pair of aces with an eight low. Ramdin had a pair of aces as well, but only showed a {Q-?} from his hole cards. Duke's king outkicked Ramdin's queen.

Duke is now up to 12,000 in chips.

Raymer Runs Bluff

Stud-8:

Greg Raymer fired a bet on seventh street with a board of {4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{2-Diamonds} into his opponent Sirous Jamshidi.

Jamshidi went into the tank and eventually made the laydown with his board showing {4-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Raymer then flipped {A-?}{7-?}{K-?} in the hole for a seven low and ace high to scoop a nice pot to move to close to 10,000.

Daniel Negreanu's Seat Eliminated

Razz:

Daniel Negreanu decided to focus on the $2,000 Limit Hold'em event, and as a result has let his stack be blinded off.

Try as it may to survive, Daniel's chair was all in during a razz hand where he was the bring in with a {K-?}. Since the chair did not have arms to stop her, the dealer proceeded to push the hand into the muck. As a result, Daniel Negreanu's seat was eliminated.

It was a strong showing for Negreanu's seat. It lasted until the middle of Level 5 in a very strong H.O.R.S.E. field.

Bohlman's Monster Doesn't Deliver

Omaha-8:

Scott Bohlman opened with a raise from the cutoff position and was reraised from the small blind by Chris Gentile. Bohlman then made the four-bet and Gentile called.

They took a flop of {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Gentile led out with a bet which was called by Bohlman. The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and again Bohlman flat-called the bet from Gentile.

The river brought the {9-Clubs} and Gentile fired a third barrel which Bohlman called. Gentile showed {A-Diamonds}{A-?}{K-Diamonds}{2-?} for the nut flush as Bohlman sighed and showed {A-?}{A-?}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. Both players held aces and flopped the flush as Bohlman lost the minimum with his queen-high flush.

Luske Outflops Rousso

Hold'em:

The action folded to Marcel Luske who opened with a raise from the cutoff position. Vanessa Rousso then reraised from the small blind and Luske made the call.

The flop came {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Rousso led out with a bet before Luske raised it up. Rousso made the call.

The turn landed the {J-Hearts} and Rousso checked to Luske who fired again, causing Rousso to lay down her hand.

Luske then flashed the {5-Spades} to the table as another player speculated that he had {A-Spades}{5-Spades}. "Bad beat for me then!" quipped Rousso insinuating that she had the better hand before the flop.
