Adam Junglen

You may not have heard of Adam before but take our word for it, he can play some poker. First he played 72s (The Velvet Hammer) from the cutoff seat and took down a large pot with the inside straight and then he came right back and got the most chips humanly possible out of his pocket Kings.

Adam Junglen 52,000.

By the way Adam is from Stow, Ohio and is currently 19 years old.

Ice Cream Jack does the licking!!

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

In a 3-way all-in Ice Cream Jack Panagiotou delivered the killer blow when he found {A-Clubs}

after Shannon Shorr with {K-Clubs}

and Adam Weiss with {A-Hearts}

moved all-in before him. The board did not bring any favour to Weiss or Shorr and for once the ice cream man did all the licking.

Ice-cream Jack sits comfortable on 55K.

Sometimes you just have to wonder.....

What do you do?

You are the BB (400), a player moves all-in for 1400, everyone else folds to you.
Your stack is 38,000. What do you do if you have {A-Spades}

?

Well I agree but I just saw a player, lay that hand down.
