Judah Flushed

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

On a board reading {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{8-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and the pot brewing around the 8,000-chip mark, Mel Judah was faced with a bet of 5,500.

He thought long and hard before eventually making the call only to muck at the sight of his opponent's {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for a flopped flush.

Although losing that hand, Judah still possesses half of what he started the day with.

The Straight and Narrow for Hansen

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Team Full Tilt Poker member Gus Hansen opened to 750 from middle position and found a caller in [Removed:415] from the small blind as a {5-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop fell.

Doria checked and Hansen fired out a continuation-bet of 1,025 which Doria called as the {4-Hearts} landed on the turn. Both players checked as the {9-Hearts} completed the board on the river.

Doria took the lead with a bet of 2,100 only to have Hansen raise to 4,500. Doria made the call, but instantly mucked at the sight of Hansen's {8-Spades}{6-Clubs} for a straight.

With that pot, Hansen climbs to roughly 16,000 in chips.

Deres and Sarwer Chop

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jeff Sarwer raised to 450 from under the gun and Full Tilt Poker online qualifier Gerasimos Deres reraised to 1,575 from the cutoff seat. Sarwer made the call.

The flop came down {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Sarwer checked. Deres fired 1,750 and Sarwer made the call to see the turn, which brought the {9-Spades} to the board.

On the turn, both players checked and the river completed the board with another {3-}. Both players checked again.

Each player showed {A-}{Q-} for queens and threes with an ace and chopped up the pot. Deres returned to 18,500 and Sarwer to 72,000.

Maya River Crushed

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante
Maya Geller still has a reason to smile . . . she has Patrik to comfort her!
Maya Geller still has a reason to smile . . . she has Patrik to comfort her!

On a flop of {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{Q-Clubs} we found Maya Geller holding an opponent all in for his last 10,900.

Geller: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

With Geller in commanding shape, the {3-Spades} on the turn changed little apart from giving her opponent an additional three outs.

Unfortunately for Mrs Antonius, the river landed the {10-Clubs} to send her opponent launching to his feet in celebration as he remained alive while Geller was left with just 3,800 in chips.
