Steven is Cautious

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

On a {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{A-Diamonds} we saw four players check. On the {10-Clubs} on the turn the small blind led out for 6,600. The big blind and Vanessa Selbst folded, but Brandon Steven in the hijack made the call. {J-Diamonds} on the river and the small blind checked. Steven thought for a second before announcing "Ok, just in case you have the ten, I check. I have an ace." He showed his {A-Spades}{6-Spades} and that was enough to take down the pot, the small blind mucked.

Newhouse Done

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Lily Newhouse just found herself preflop all in and she got two callers. Her two opponents checked on {A-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and the {7-Clubs} appeared on the turn. One player bet 8,000, the other one called. It went check, check again on the {2-Clubs} river and it was time to show the cards. Newhouse showed her {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades} which wasn't a winner. One player had {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, while the other one took it down with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

Vanessa Selbst opened the action fromt he small blind with a raise to 4,500. Brandon Steven in the big blind, enjoying a never ending massage, made the call. {8-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} on the flop and both players checked. The {5-Hearts}-turn led to more action: Selbst bet out 5,300 and Steven raised it up to 12,700. Selbst made the call and checked to het beighbor on the {6-Spades} river. Steven contemplated betting, but checked behind after some thinking.

Selbst waited before showing her cards but Steven didn't make an attempt to show his. "One pair" announced Selbst eventually, and Steven told her it was good. She showed her {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Steven mucked.

Break

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Cody Crippled

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

An all in confrontation left Jake Cody crippled. We saw that he had pocket queens and his opponent held pocket kings. The board was jack high and the large pot was shipped to Cody's opponent. Cody will survive with only 2,100 which only barely covers one big blind.
