Roland de Wolfe just experienced a bit of misfortune when his opponent, apparently having misread his hand thinking he had flopped a set of sevens, ended up drawing out a straight and taking a decent-sized pot from de Wolfe. He's down to 16,000.
Andy Black and three other players at his table are still involved in a pot at the turn stage with the board reading .
A player in front of Black bets 4,000 before he raises up to 13,000. A player behind him calls but but the original bettor and the fourth player involved both fold.
The river comes and Black is set all in by his opponent.
He calls with for a full house.
His opponent shows for a missed flush draw, so attemped a bluff. Andy Black is not the right opponent to try that on
On a board showing , Bruno Fitoussi bet 9,000, Jared Hamby raised all in to 29,000, and Fitoussi called.
Fitoussi showed A-K-10-9. He'd flopped a boat, and improved to nines full of kings on the turn. Unfortunately for him, Hamby held K-K-x-x, so that turn card had given him kings full of nines.
Hamby is up to 52,000, while Fitoussi slips to 18,000.
A late position player bet out on a flop, David Grey bet 11,000, a middle position player reraised behind him, Frank Vizza repopped it from the button, and Grey pushed all in with his 110,000. Both players called.
Vizza had for a wrap draw. David Grey had for top set. And the third player had for top two and a straight draw.
The turn was the , giving Vizza the straight. The on the river didn't change things, and Vizza had eliminated two players.
