Broadway for Ray

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Jesse Martin made it two bets from the hijack and Raymond Dehkharghani made it three-bets from the small blind. The {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop would see Dehkhargahni lead with a bet and Martin Call. The {q-Clubs} turn and Dehkharghani would lead again. Martin announced a raise and Dehkhargahni made the call.

When the {j-Spades} completed the board on the river, Dehkhargahni led and Martin called. Dehkharghani's {k-}{k-} was good enough for a broadway straight and good enough to see Martin's cards into the muck.

Big Bets

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

There hasn't been very much defending of the blinds so far, with every bet precious to the players. The average stack is currently around ten big bets.

Derke Doubles

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Jeff Shulman came in with a raise from the button and Andrew Prock three-bet from the small blind. Nicholas Derke then four-bet from the big blind. Shulman called and so too did Prock.

The {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop would see Prock bet, Derke called all-in and Shulman also called. Derke watched on as the two players took to a {10-Spades} turn. Prock again led and Shulman opted to lay down his hand.

Prock turned over his {k-Spades}{6-Spades} and Derke's {10-}{10-} was looking good to take the double-up. The river bricked out and Derke took down the hand with his set.
