Adams Shows the Aces

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Justin Adams
Justin Adams

Justin Adams was under the gun and opened for 1,100. The player on the button called, as did the big blind, and the trio took a flop of {4-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

The player in the big blind checked, Adams continued for 2,200, and the button folded. The big blind opted to call and then checked for the second time after the dealer burned and turned the {10-Diamonds}.

Adams kept the pressure on with a bet of 5,000 and it did the trick as the player in the big blind released.

Adams then showed the table his {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}.

Big Slick Does the Trick for Peters

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante
Jeff Peters
Jeff Peters

Jeff Peters opened for 1,100 under the gun and the player in the cutoff called. The rest of the players got out of the way and the duo saw a flop of {8-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds}.

Action went check-check and the dealer burned and turned the {3-Clubs}. Peters put out a delayed continuation-bet of 1,000 and the cutoff called.

Both players returned to checking on the {4-Spades} river. Peters tabled the {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} for top pair and it was good as his opponent sent his hand to the muck.

Arslami Gets Lucky to Chop

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante
Arslam Arslami
Arslam Arslami

With approximately 15,000 in the pot and a flop of {9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Philip Novegrad bet 11,500 from the small blind and Arslam Arslami called from middle position.

The player in the cutoff then raised to 36,000, Novegrad folded, and Arslami thought long and hard before making the call.

Arslami then checked the {8-Hearts} turn and the player in the cutoff moved all in. Arslami snap-called off and the hands were turned up.

Arslami: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Cutoff: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The player in the cutoff had flopped the nuts, which meant Arslami was fortunate to catch the eight on the turn to make the same hand. The meaningless {k-Clubs} was run out on the river and the two chopped it up.
