Lodden Rivers Flush

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Three players including Moundir Zoughari and Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden looked down at a board of {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. With 5,800 already in the middle, Zoughari checked from the small blind and Lodden followed suit. Action was up to the player on the button who cut out a bet of 3,000. Zoughari called and Lodden came along as well.

The trio remained engaged to see the {10-Clubs} finish off the board. Zoughari checked one final time, putting action on Lodden. He reached into his stack and came out with a bet of 8,500. The player on the button thought for well over a minute before throwing his cards away. Zoughari quickly called and the dealer called for a showdown.

Lodden confidently rolled over {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for a club flush. Zoughari could not beat it and he tossed his cards into the muck. Lodden was awarded the pot and his stack now sits around 61,500.

Fatima Moreira de Melo
Fatima Moreira de Melo

PokerStars Team SportsStar Fatima Moreira de Melo was engaged in heads up action with Australia's Michael Egan. With about 15,000 already in the pot, Egan cut out a bet of 10,000.

De Melo went into the tank on the river while she pondered calling for a significant portion of her stack. In the end, she flicked forward calling chips, prompting Egan to slap {j-Spades}{9-Spades} on the table for merely jack-high. De Melo rolled over {3-Clubs}{3-Spades} for a flopped set of treys and she was awarded the pot.

With this win, de Melo's stack is now up to about 53,500 in chips.

Patkovic Over Grospellier

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier raised to 400 from early position and found calls from the players in the cutoff and on the button. Srdjan Patkovic was in the small blind and he came along for the ride. The player in the big blind called as well, making it five players to the flop.

The dealer fanned {k-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades} and the two blinds checked back to Grospellier. He continued for 1,000 and the next two players quickly released their hands. Patkovic called and the big blind let it go.

Fourth street was the {a-Hearts} and Patkovic checked for a second time. Grospellier did the same and the {8-Diamonds} completed the board. Action checked to the Team PokerStars Pro one final time and he bet 2,250. Patkovic called and Grospellier confidently rolled over {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}. Patkovic had that beat, however, with {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for a pair of kings with a higher kicker. With this hit, Grospellier's stack has been reduced to 25,200.
