Tryba Losses Some to Full House

[user80015]

Level 2 : 25/100, 25 ante

Both Andre Akkari and Chris Tryba called a completion and a bet from their opponent before fifth street saw Tryba take the lead after the action was checked to him. Tryba's opponent raised to push Akkari out before Tryba made it three bets to go. His opponent made it four before Tryba called.

On sixth street - now faced with another 200 bet - Tryba called and stated, "it makes no sense for you to raise a full house on fifth to push an opponent out." Seventh saw Tryba call another bet as both player's boards read as follows.

Tryba: / /
Opponent: / /
Akkari: / (folded on fifth)

Tryba's opponent tabled his for queens-full and Tryba mucked his hand while slipping to 5,800 in chips.

Singer Struggling

[user80015]

Level 2 : 25/100, 25 ante

On fifth street we found David Singer raising his opponent's 200-chip bet. Singer's opponent called and checked dark (although not possible until sixth street was dealt) before Singer tapped the table behind.

Before the dealer had a chance to deal seventh, Singer's opponent blind-bet out 200 and once Singer looked over his cards, he folded his hand while slipping to 2,100 in chips.

Barbero Flashes a Jack

[user80015]

Level 2 : 25/100, 25 ante

Nacho Barbero completed first to act before his opponent raised to 200. Barbero called, and then proceeded to call bets on fourth and fifth before raising sixth and betting out on seventh.

Barbero: / /
Opponent: / /

With Barbero's opponent going into the tank for a few moments, he would eventually opt to fold while Barbero raked the pot to move back to starting stack while flashing the .
