Bloch Not Going Anywhere

[user76023]

Mid-position raised and Bloch made it three bets from the cutoff before the small blind made it four. The mid-position player folded and Bloch called, he then called bets on the flop and turn of a {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

board.

Both checked the river and Bloch showed {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

while the small blind mucked.

Betting at the Table

[user76023]

For the last half hour, Mark Seif and Amnon Fillipi have been arguing over which hand is better to take on {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Diamonds}

. Is it

{7-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

or

{6-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

? The pair had a $1,000 on the bet with Seif sure the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

would win.

After a quick calculation online, both hands beat aces 22.87% of the time but {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

only ties with aces 0.32% of the time, but {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

ties with aces 0.37% of the time...

Hellmuth Busts..

[user76023]

Just before a multiway limped pot, Phil Hellmuth shouts to Annie Duke, "Watch how I play this one..."

They see a {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

flop and it's checked to Hellmuth who bets 450. Jean-Robert Bellande check-raises all in and Hellmuth quickly calls with {7-?}

{7-?}

{7-?}

, ahead of Bellande's {J-?}

{J-?}

{6-?}

. The turn is the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

but the river is a devil for Hellmuth, another {6-?}

{6-?}

to eliminate him.

Nick Bings It

[user76023]

After crippling himself with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Spades}

against

{K-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

, Nick Binger was all in for his shrapnel with {9-?}

{9-?}

{8-?}

against

{K-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Despite the flop coming {K-?}

{K-?}

{K-?}

{5-?}

, Binger won when the turn was the {6-?}

{6-?}

and the river the {7-?}

{7-?}

for his last few hundred chips.

Shannon Shorn...

[user76023]

During the limit portion, Brock Parker and Shannon Elizabeth check a {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

flop, Parker bets the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

turn and the actress calls before they both check the {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

river. Parker shows {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{7-Spades}

and Elizabeth mucks, leaving herself with 2,700. Parker has 12,000.
