Into the Ferey

PokerStars.fr Qualifier Julien Ferey has been among the big stacks for most of the day, but it certainly wasn't hands like the following that put him there:

We caught up with the action on the {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, where Ferey was betting 2,100 chips into a 3500-chip pot. One player made the call and they went heads-up to the {q-Clubs} turn, where that player led out for 3,500.

Ferey made the call, and when his opponent checked the {3-Clubs} river, he fired out a 6,300-chip bet.

His opponent called and Ferey's holdings hit the muck before he was even shown the winning hand.

Crown of Thorns

EPT, WSOP and WPT Triple Crown winner Jake Cody flat called a 1,200-chip open from the player on his right and they to went heads-up to a {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop.

The original raiser made it 1,700 and Cody flatted again. However, when the raiser checked the {9-Clubs} turn, Jake took the lead, making it 3,400. His opponent called.

The river brought the {8-Diamonds} and another check, prompting Cody to send in a 7k bet. His opponent then made it 22k and Cody insta-mucked, tapping the table with his stack now under the 30k he started the day with.
