Six-Perfect for Bucky

4,000/8,000 Razz

Shawn Buchanan opened in late position with a {6-} and "wiNNin83" defended a {q-} on the bring-in. Buchanan kept up his aggression to fifth but was met with a raise despite a superior board.

Buchanan: {x-}{x-}/{6-}{2-}{j-}
wiNNin83: {x-}{x-}/{q-}{6-}{5-}

Buchanan called then checked when he got an {a-} as his opponent caught a {3-}. wiNNin83 checked back and Buchanan bet the end. wiNNin83 fired in a raise, Buchanan, three-bet, and wiNNin83 called but couldn't beat a six-perfect.

Two More Busted

4,000/8,000 Omaha Hi-Lo

Dzmitry "Colisea" Urbanovich was down under two bets and got them in from the big blind against fellow short stack "donthnrmepls."

Urbanovich: {j-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
donthnrmepls: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

The {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{q-Spades} board didn't bring Urbanovich enough improvement, so he busted and has yet to reenter.

His executor met the same fate moments later and did reenter.

3,500/7,000 Limit Hold'em

Jens "Fresh_oO_D" Lakemeier raised in the hijack and capped it when Alexey "LuckyGump" Makarov reraised on the button. Lakemeier bet and raised until the last 12K was in on the {8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop.

Lakemeier: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Makarov: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Lakemeier was in grim shape and was left reentering after the turn and river.

Pereira Doubles Through Vieira

700/1,400 PLO

Joao "Naza114" Vieira potted in the small blind and Christian "Crisper" Pereira called. On the {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop, Vieira bet half-pot and then shoved when Pereira potted for more than half his remaining chips.

Vieira: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Pereira: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

The set was good for Pereira and he faded any further aces and kings emerging.

"RaulGonzalez" on a Rampage

700/1,400/150 NLHE

Action folded to the small blind, where "RaulGonzalez" raised it up to 4,200. Dzmitry "Colisea" Urbanovich defended the big blind and the flop checked through for a board of {3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. RaulGonzalez bet 3,500 and Urbanovich responded with a raise to 14,000. RaulGonzalez peeled, bringing the {a-Diamonds}. Urbanovich continued his aggression with 21,875 but RaulGonzalez crammed it in his face on a check-raise and Urbanovich let it go.

RaulGonzalez Scores First KO

2,500/5,000 Stud Hi-Lo

"aleksandrs10" completed with the {9-Hearts} on a short stack and "RaulGonzalez" raised in the next seat with the {6-Diamonds}. Action folded to the bring-in, where Denis "aDrENalin710" Strebkov three-bet it with the {2-Spades}, aleksandrs10 called off for less and RaulGonzalez called.

Both players caught big cards and RaulGonzalez took over the betting from there.

Strebkov: {x-}{x-}/{2-Spades}{10-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{a-Hearts}/{x-}
aleksandrs10: {x-}{x-}/{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts}/{x-}
RaulGonzalez: {x-}{x-}/{6-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{a-Spades}/{x-}

Gonzalez showed {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts} for jacks up, and nobody could beat it or show down a qualifying low.

Zaichenko Gets Value from a Nine

2,000/4,000 Razz

Andrey "Kroko-dill" Zaichenko completed with one player left to act on a {6-}, and that player was Shawn "buck21" Buchanan, who raised with a {4-}. Both players caught queens so Buchanan kept the betting lead, but Zaichenko bet every street after that when he caught better than his opponent.

Zaichenko: {a-}{9-}/{6-}{q-}{3-}{j-}/{2-}
Buchanan: {x-}{x-}/{4-}{q-}{9-}{k-}/{x-}

Buchanan was unable to find a fold and paid off a nine-low.

Eight-Six No Good for Vieira

1,750/3,500 2-7 Triple Draw

Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski opened on the button and was called by both blinds. Everyone threw away two and Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi came out betting. Joao "Naza114" Vieira raised, Dzivielevski reraised, Shakerchi folded, and Vieira called. Both players drew one and Vieira check-raised. Dzivielevski called and drew one final card after Vieira patted.

Vieira bet the end and got called, showing {8-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{2-}, but it wasn't good as Dzivielevski had made {8-}{6-}{4-}{3-}{2-}.
