Boatman Chips Up With River Shove

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

From the hi-jack, Howard Lederer entered his first pot with a raise to 2,800.

On his direct left, Barny Boatman three-bet to 8,300 to force folds from the blinds.

After a few moments in the tank, Lederer made the call and checked the {5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} flop as Boatman placed in a bet of 7,500.

With the action returning to Lederer, he took less than a minute before decided to make the call as the {A-Clubs} rolled off on the turn.

Again Lederer tapped the table before Boatman gazed at the board before also waving off his action as the dealer dropped the {5-Hearts} on the river.

Rearranging his chip stack a few times, Lederer eventually opted to tap the table with his right hand as Boatman asked the dealer to spread the pot.

"All in!" announced Boatman out of the blue as he slid his chips into the pot to amount to a bet of roughly 38,000.

A seemingly stunned Lederer rested his head on his hands before opting to toss his cards into the muck as Boatman collected the pot to move to 73,000 in chips.

Oppenheim Coping Some Heat

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

David Oppenheim opened to 2,300 from under the gun and was met with a series of folds until Patrik Antonius slid in a raise of 9,000 from the big blind.

With his hand covering his mouth, Oppenheim thought for a moment before re-check his holecards.

Oppenheim shook his head and then kicked his cards to the muck.

Three-Bet for Boatman

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

From the button, Eli Elezra made it 3,500 to go with Barny Boatman tossing out a three-bet from the big blind to 8,600.

Staring down Boatman for slightly less then a minute, Elezra kicked his cards to the muck to see Boatman collect the small, but stack-building pot.

Flop Bet Win for Antonius

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

James Bord entered the pot from the hi-jack with a raise to 3,000 as Patrik Antonius smooth-called from the cutoff.

Pausing for a few moments while shuffling chips, David Oppenheim eventually folded as the table laughed it off.

"That's how you play!" stated Eli Elezra as he tossed in the chips to call from the small blind.

Elezra and Bord checked the {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop as Antonius placed in a bet of 6,000. Elezra and Bord both mucked as Antonius happily accepted the pot to build his short-stack.

"Big, big hand!" announced Eli Elezra as his 3,500-chip open from under the gun successfully took down the pot.

"He called my hand. Queen-ten!" added Elezra as he sucked on his un-lit cigar.
