Borenstein Guns Down "stringerbell24"

In Level 19 (5,000/10,000), "stringerbell24" open-jammed for his last 125K or so from the hijack and Jonathan “jetsfan411” Borenstein called from the big blind.

Jonathan “jetsfan411” Borenstein: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
"stringerbell24": {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The {q-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} flop gave Borenstein the nut flush and just like that "stringerbell24" was left drawing dead.

The meaningless {3-Diamonds} turn and {5-Spades} river were run out for good measure and "stringerbell24" hit the virtual rail.

"BigDickRick" Kicked to the Curb

In Level 20 (6,000/12,000), "BigDickRick" got his last 72,000 all in preflop from the button and was at risk against "judiallin," who was in the cutoff.

"judiallin": {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
"BigDickRick": {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Both players held an ace but "BigDickRick" had a kicker problem. The {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Spades} flop gave him a gutshot straight draw, but the running {k-Clubs} turn and {k-Diamonds} river missed him to give "judiallin" the pot.

"IReadYrSoul" Falls to "odo23"

In Level 21 (7,000/14,000), "odo23" raised to 30,8000 from early position and "IReadYrSoul" called off his 24,869 short stack from the big blind.

"IReadYrSoul" {q-Spades}{9-Spades}
"odo23": {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

It was a flip but "IReadYrSoul" needed to improve to stay alive. The {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop gave "odo23" an added up-and-down straight draw, while the {k-Hearts} on the turn left "IReadYrSoul" looking to get luck on the river.

That didn't happen though as the {6-Clubs} peeled off to improve "odo23" to a set of sixes.

"Whosyourdoddy" Gets Lucky to Crack Aces

Jonathan “jetsfan411” Borenstein limped the cutoff and "Turkeyleg" did the same from the button. "Whosyourdoddy" checked his option from the big blind and it was three-way action to the {2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop.

Two checks saw "Turkeyleg" bet 68,820 and "Whosyourdoddy" check-raised all in for 379,665. Borenstein folded and "Turkeyleg" quickly called.

"Turkeyleg": {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
"Whosyourdoddy": {k-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

The {k-Hearts} turn thrust "Whosyourdoddy" into the lead and he shipped the double after the safe {3-Hearts} peeled off on the river.
