Roberts Rolls Over Lechich

[user92162]

Brian Roberts may be a Texas Longhorns fan, but it was more like Alabama's Roll Tide as he powered over Tino Lechich in straight sets.

The final hand of heads up had Lechich move all in with {j-?}

on the turn with the board reading {10-Clubs}

. Robert's made a quick call with {Q-Clubs}

. The board bricked the {5-Diamonds}

to advance Roberts.

against

.

Retallick would spike the {k-Hearts}

flop, and dodge on the {7-Diamonds}

Dani Stern into Round Three

[user92162]

We just caught up with Dani Stern who played a rather quick match against Sandra Retallick.

Stern won 2-0. He said in the first rubber of the match he raised the button with {k-?}

and Retallick flat called. The flop came {K-?}

and Retallick check-raised all in with {A-?}

. The board bricked to take Stern into a 1-0 lead.

The second rubber Retallick ran {A-?}

into Stern's {8-?}

preflop and wasn't able to catch up.

Amazingly Sandra Retallick has completed two matches in the time it has taken Gary Retallick to finish one rubber against Michael Watson.
