Ace-High is Good

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Albert Daher and Olivier Busquet were heads up on a flop of {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}, and Daher checked. Busquet fired 6,000, and Daher called.

Daher opted to lead out for 12,000 after the {6-Clubs} turned, and after tanking for a bit, Busquet called.

The river was the {10-Hearts}, both players checked, and Busquet rolled over {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} for ace-high. It was good.

Double for McDonald

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Mike McDonald has doubled up through Anaras Alekberovas, a small blind vs button battle which was a cooler any which way you looked at it.

McDonald: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Alekberovas: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

The {2-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{Q-Spades} flop changed nothing and McDonald has recovered from his earlier short stack.

Professional Acting

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Faraz Jaka
Faraz Jaka

Faraz Jaka and Eric Sfez were heads up on a queen-high board with two fives and two clubs. Jaka was faced with a 27,000-chip bet, and went into the tank.

"Show one if you fold?" Jaka asked.

"Yes," Sfez agreed. "I can show one."

There were a few seconds of silence.

"You have seven-five?" Sfez asked. "I'll show one."

Jaka tanked for a little longer, laughed, then called, ripping over {q-}{9-}. The player unhappily mucked his hand.

"You promised you'd show," Jaka needled. "Are you a professional actor?"

The very next hand, Sfez opened to 5,000 on middle position, and Jaka three-bet to 14,100 from the small blind.

"That's what you get for lying," Jaka said.

Sfez called, and the dealer fanned {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Jaka led out for 12,000, Sfez called, and the turn brought the {q-Clubs}. Jaka checked, Sfez tanked for two minutes then fired 26,200, and Jaka snap-called.

The river was the {2-Spades}, Jaka checked again, and after a very long time, Sfez checked behind. Jaka would reveal his cards until either Sfez tabled his cards or mucked them, and eventually he showed ten-high. Jaka flipped over {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}.

"Professional actor!" both Kevin MacPhee and Jason Lavallee said mockingly after the hand.
