Deeb Doubles Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Shaun Deeb had already shoved for about 30,000 on top of his lone opponent's original bet on a {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop when we got to the table. Deeb's opponent was considering his decision but called to put Deeb at risk in fairly short order.

Shaun Deeb: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

Deeb found himself behind his opponent's two pair and needed to improve in order to win. The {5-Hearts} on the turn put Deeb in the lead with fives and deuces, the {9-Diamonds} river missed both players, and Deeb took the pot to double up.

Nitsche Felts a Foe

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante
Dominik Nitsche
Dominik Nitsche

Dominik Nitsche raised from the cutoff and got stacks in against the button in a flurry of activity. Nitsche had the larger of the two stacks.

Dominik Nitsche: {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Button: {8-}{7-}{6-}{4-}

Nitsche had the preflop edge and his opponent needed to catch up to survive. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and Nitsche's unimproved eights held up to win the pot and stack his opponent.

A Straight Flush for Negreanu

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu and Martin Kozlov were heads-up on a {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board with about 12,000 in the middle. Kozlov checked from the small blind, Negreanu bet 4,500 from the button, and Kozlov called.

The {K-Spades} fell on the river and Kozlov checked. Negreanu bet 16,000, and after brief consideration, Kozlov folded.

"I think these two had you," said Negreanu as he flashed {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a turned straight flush. "I was hoping you had the nut flush."

Burns Keeps the Big Chip

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

Picking up the action on the river of the {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} board, Kahle Burns checked in the big blind and the action was on Dan Heimiller, sitting on the button. There was about 9,000 in the middle and Heimiller was figuring out his bet-sizing.

"Do you have a big chip?" he asked. "Yes," Burns replied and spread his chips so it became clear that he had one pink chip worth 5,000. He had only 7,400 total and Heimiller set the showdown price at 3,600. Burns briefly studied the situation and then folded his hand.

Ferguson Felted

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

Chris Ferguson was recently eliminated in a three-way all-in with Ramin Hajiyev and Igor Sharaskin. According to the table, all the chips went in before the flop.

Chris Ferguson: {K-}{K-}{Q-}{8-}
Ramin Hajiyev: {A-Clubs}{7-}{5-Clubs}{4-}
Igor Sharaskin: {9-}{8-}{7-}{6-}

Although Ferguson had the advantage preflop, Hajiyev flopped an ace to take the lead. The turn and river brought no help for Ferguson or Sharaskin and Hajiyev took the pot to send Ferguson to the rail.

Kitai Gets There

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

Davidi Kitai was all in for 7,400 on the {J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} flop with around 6,000 having been thrown inside the pot preflop. Kitai was behind with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} against {J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} but the {Q-Diamonds} turn gave him a gutshot and he hit the Broadway on the {10-Clubs} river to double up.
