Byrraju Back in it

On a {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop Rahul Byrraju ended up all in for his final 40,000 chips. His opponent showed {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, and Byrraju was well out in front with {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. The turn brought the {8-Clubs} and the river the {4-Clubs} giving Byrraju a double up.

On the very next hand it was Mike Watson who raised to 4,500 and Byrraju's opponent moved all in for less than that. Watson showed {Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and busted his opponent who showed {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} when the board ran out {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Gaw Using Position and Aggression Against Lim

Action moved to Aaron Lim in the hijack seat, and he raised to 4,000. In the next spot in the cutoff seat was Andrew Gaw, and he put in a reraise to 10,000. After the players folded to put the action back on Lim, he called.

The dealer produced the {K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Spades} on the flop, and Lim checked. Gaw bet 11,000, and Lim made the call. That brought out the {4-Spades} on the turn, and Lim checked again. Gaw fired 20,000, and Lim folded.

Big Double for Watson

A player in the cutoff raised to 4,500 after which the button and the small blind called. Mike Watson three-bet to 18,000 from the big blind after which the initial raiser folded. Rahul Byrraju called from the button and the small blind also decided to lay his hand down.

Watson bet 15,600 on the {J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop, and Byrraju made the call to see the {A-Diamonds} come on the turn. Watson fired again for 28,300, and Byrraju raised all in to put Watson at risk. Watson quickly double checked his hand to make sure he had what he thought he had, then called with the {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}. Byrraju got caught with his hand in the cookie jar with the {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

The river completed the board with the {8-Clubs} and Byrraju sent over the chips to give Watson the double. Watson was all in on the turn for 103,400 and now has about 270,000 in chips.
