Klein Scoops Soulier

Level 10

Board: {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

We came upon the table to see James Dempsey check the turn over to Harold Klein who fired out a bet. Fabrice Soulier dipped into his stack and came out with a raise. Dempsey called two bets and Klein called as well.

Fifth street brought a third club to the board- the {7-Clubs} - and Dempsey checked once more. Klein fired out a bet on this street and Soulier opted to just flat call. Dempsey picked his hand up off of the felt, looked at it, and threw it down toward the muck. Klein tabled {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a club-flush for the high and the nut low. A dejected Soulier was stunned to be scooped held onto his cards for a moment, continuously looking back down at them before finally throwing them into the muck. Kein, who started the day as the chip leader, is climbing ever-higher now with 95,000 in chips.

Fifth street brought the {Q-Clubs} and Kostritsyn checked once again. Ho fired a bet and Kostritsyn called. Ho rolled over {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for top two with aces and kings and took down the pot.

Matusow with the Scoop

Level 9

We caught up with three players looking down at a flop that read {2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. The first player checked over to Justin Smith who fired out a bet. Mike Matusow raised the action and the first player folded.

Smith and Matusow were heads up to the turn which brought the {8-Hearts}. Smith checked and Matusow continued with a bet. Smith called and the {Q-Diamonds} hit the river. Smith check-called one last bet and Matusow tabled his hand of {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a flopped full house of sevens full of deuces and an eighty-seven low. Matusow is now sitting on about 45,000 in chips.

Tom Koral, David "Bakes" Baker, and Perry Friedman were three-handed to a flop of {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. Friedman checked from the big blind and Baker bet from late position. Koral folded from the next seat over and Friedman called to see the {6-Hearts} turn.

Another check-call from Friedman landed the {10-Clubs} river which both checked.

Friedman tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts} for dueces full of sixes, besting Baker's holdings to win the pot.
