Another Shipping Lesson

flop. Aldridge called.

The turn was a third heart, the {J-Hearts}

. Aldridge checked again, then raised all in after Gould bet 350,000. Gould quickly folded.

Shipping Lesson

MarcC

Carman Cavella raised to 125,000 (seems to be the raise amount of choice right now) and both players call before we saw a {2-Clubs}

flop. It's checked to Cavella who continues his aggression with a 200,000 bet. Aldridge quickly moves all in and both players fold.

A Typical Hand

[user75032]

Carman Cavella opens with a preflop raise that is called by big blind Peter Gould. Gould checks a flop of {7-Clubs}

over to Cavella, then folds to Cavella's bet of 200,000.

06-05-2009 15:42 UTC-12

Carman Cavella raised to 125,000 from the SB before Ken Aldridge three bet to 350,000. There was a slight pause before Cavella shipped the lot in forcing Aldridge to fold.

That's more like the three handed play we expect.

Penalty Box!

Level: 26

Blinds: 25,000/50,000

Ante: 5,000

for the best hand.

A Spot More Action

[user75032]

Although the players are still showing the small ball tendencies they were displaying before dinner, there has been an increase in the amount of action. On a recent hand, Ken Aldridge opened for 95,000 in front of Peter Gould, who raised back to a total of 390,000. Carman Cavella got out of the way, allowing Aldridge to move all in. After a quick count, Gould folded his hand.
