Confused Players

[user140344]

It's a bit more difficult for the players here at the Crown Poker Room to differentiate the tournament PokerPro tables from the cash game PokerPro tables. We've seen numerous occasions of cash game players trying to get in on the action and being turned away.

Lim-ping Away

[user140344]

Arnie Lim just doubled through Peter Smyth in a hand that goes a little something like this.

All the chips were shipped in the middle preflop. Lim tabled {5-Hearts}

and Smyth showed {k-Hearts}

.

The board ran out {3-Hearts}

.

Lim doubled to 54,000. Smyth dropped to 35,000.

Two hands after doubling up, Lim was sent packing when he shipped his chips in the middle with {6-?}

and was called by Hienz Kamutzki with {A-?}

.

The flop brought trouble for Lim with the {4-Hearts}

and the

turn and

river didn't help him out either and Lim was sent to the rail.

Shuttled Out

After doubling up Arnie Lim, Peter Smyth found himself in a tight spot. He put his chips at risk with {A-Spades}

and was called by Kalan Shuttlewood. Shuttlewood tabled {7-Diamonds}

and the board did nothing for Smyth and just like that, he was gone.
