Vanessa Rousso Makes a Tough Call

[user22113]

Vanessa limps into a pot with two other players. Flop comes {J-Clubs}

, seat one checks, Vanessa bets 300 and both players call. Turn comes {9-Clubs}

, all three players check. The turn brings a {10-Diamonds}

and seat one fires out with a 2,000 bet. With both a potential flush and straight on the board Vanessa agonizes over the call and then finally throws her chips in and says, "Fine"... not realizing she still has a player behind her to act. He folds and she breaths a sigh of relief when her opponent only flips over {3-Diamonds}

for a pair of 4's... Vanessa show's {J-Hearts}

for two pair and takes the pot down!

David Benyamine Cracks KK

[user22113]

After flopping an Ace and being check-called twice by his opponent, then check-raised on the river, David Benyamine takes down a nice size pot bringing his chip count up to 33,800... that'll teach you to slow play pocket K's when an Ace comes out on the flop.
