Holz Flops a Flush
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
On a flop of 
we saw 800 go in a person with three players involved, though we must admit we didn't see the order the chips went in. On the turn the 
appeared and the small blind, a lady in middle position, and Fedor Holz in the cutoff all checked.
The river came the 
and the small blind bet 1,500. The player in middle position made the call and Holz over called after frowning for a bit.
The small blind his face told us he didn't have much, but he did show a flush with the 
. That was enough to beat the player in middle position as she mucked her cards. Holz then tabled his 
and took down the pot. Good start for Holz who also made the $100,000 Challenge final table.

Kaverman vs. Sylvia
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
Byron Kaverman, the 2015 GPI Player of the Year, raised to 500 from the button and Jesse Sylvia, who you may recall as the 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event runner-up, called from the small blind. The two took a flop of 
, and then both checked, as they did on the turn.
When the 
double paired the board on the river, Sylvia checked and then quickly folded when Kaverman bet 700. Not much of a hand, but it gave us a good excuse to update you on their respective chip counts.

Stevan Gives Lin Something to Chew On
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
Celina Lin raised to 500 from the cutoff and Stevan Chew in the small blind was the sole caller. Chew checked on 
and initial raiser Lin made a bet of 500. Chew came along and checked again once the 
hit the turn. Lin continued for 1,000. So far, this could have been a limit game, but things changed drastically as Chew made it 3,600. Lin made the call.
The river had Chew bet 4,400. Lin didn't like it too much, but in the end found the prize to good to fold.
Chew showed and Lin mucked, later claiming she had a set. John Juanda recently joined Lin's and Chew's table, he's at about starting stack.
