Play On!

The dinner break has come and gone, and we've got six delicious levels of poker on the dessert menu. The players are back in their seats, and the cards are in the air once again.

Level: 13

Blinds: 2,000/4,000

Ante: 0

The Dinner Bell Tolls

We've reached the end of our first four levels, and it's time for dinner. The players have been given their one-hour break, and the cards will be back in the air right around 8:25 p.m.

DeBora Vaults Up the Board

From the cutoff seat, Greg DeBora opened the pot with a raise. Phil Galfond three-bet him from the button, and the two men went off to a heads-up flop.

It came {8-Spades} {9-Spades} {5-Hearts}, and DeBora knocked the table. He check-raised a Galfond bet, and they each put in two small bets to see the {5-Clubs} on the turn. Galfond called another DeBora bet there, and one last one on the {A-Diamonds} river to go to showdown.

DeBora's {A-Clubs} {9-Clubs} was good for two pair, and good enough to win the pot. He's all the way up to 200,000 now, comfortably in the top five by our tally.

Galfond - 32,000

Deeb's Day is Done

Shaun Deeb
Shaun Deeb

Shaun Deeb was over 100,000 when this level started, but he's managed to burn through that stack in short order to find himself out of chips entirely just a few orbits later.

Cards Down!

It was a battle of the blinds when the dealer ran out a flop of {7-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}. Ray Henson bet out from the small, and Greg DeBora called from the big.

That led them to the turn {3-Diamonds}, and DeBora called another bet. On the {4-Diamonds} river, Henson fired one final bullet only to see DeBora bump it up to two bets on a last-minute raise. Henson called, and DeBora showed him {A-Clubs} {6-Spades} for the run-down straight. Henson flung his cards high into the air, and they spilled off the table and onto the floor. He retrieved his {K-Spades} {10-Clubs} long enough to sling them into the muck, and his stack has taken a hit down to 39,000.

DeBora is now quite healthy with about 180,000 in front of him.

Harman Takes a Hit

Jennifer Harman raised from the button and Patrick Walsh defended his big blind. The flop was {K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Walsh check-called a bet from Harman. Both players checked the {4-Clubs} on the turn. The river was the {6-Hearts} and Walsh led out. Harman called.

Walsh showed pocket deuces for a set and Harman mucked. She's down to 52,000.
