Tough Table

Burt Boutin
Burt Boutin

In a field that is running increasingly short on pros, it is not uncommon to have tables full of new and unrecognizable faces. That simply is not the case over at Table 275, where both John "The Razor" Phan and Burt Boutin have been seated together.

There has been a lot of action at that table, but who knows for how much longer. Table 275 is on the list of tables that'll be broken shortly.

Bye Bye Perry

Danny Suied raised under the gun to 2,400 before action folded to a player in middle position. That player moved all in for about 30,000 and then action moved around to Perry Friedman in the big blind. he called all in for less and then Suied got out of the way.

Friedman: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

An ace on the turn would do it for Friedman and send him to the rail as the board ran out {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{A-Spades}{6-Spades}. He took off his multi-colored propeller hat and signed it, handing it over to the player who busted him. WHen he was presented with the hat the player asked, "What's your name?"

Deeb Adds 10,000

Shaun Deeb raised preflop and got a call from a player in later position. On a flop of {7-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, Deeb check-called a 4,200 bet from his opponent. Both players checked through the {j-Spades} on the turn and the {6-Clubs} on the river. In the end, Deeb's {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} was better than his opponent's {10-Clubs}{8-}.

Deeb now has about 43,000 in chips.

Von Halle: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

From Robusto to Busto

Phil Gordon called an opponent's all-in bet on a board reading {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

Gordon: {j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Gordon had some fading to do, but couldn't get through when {4-Clubs} came on the turn. The {a-Spades} on the river didn't change a thing, and Gordon was down to 8,000.

Gordon busted a few hands later.
