Alex Peffly
Alex Peffly

Action came in on the river as the board read {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. The pot had about 38,000 in the middle.

From early position, Jack Sinclair jammed all in for about 16,000. Alex Peffly was in the big blind and had to think about it for a long time before he called.

Sinclair tabled the {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, which Peffly had pipped with the {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} for the superior ace-high as Sinclair was busted and walked away.

Jordon and Harry Exchange Stacks

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Terry Jordon
Terry Jordon

Ulysse Harry raised from under the gun to 1,600 and found three callers before Terry Jordon raised to 6,600 from the small blind. Harry called while the other players folded, leaving the hand heads up.

Jordon continued for 5,100 after the {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop, and Harry took a moment before making the call. Jordon then moved all in for his last 3,000 after the {4-Clubs} turn, with Harry tossing in the call. The river {k-Spades} hit before Jordon revealed {q-Spades}{8-Spades} for the double up.

But on the very next hand, the two were heads up again after the {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. Jordon led out for 16,000 and Harry called to see the {q-Clubs} turn. Jordon announced a bet of 20,100 before calling Harry's all in.

Terry Jordon: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Ulysse Harry: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Both players hit top pair on the turn, but Harry was ahead with his ace kicked. The river {3-Hearts} changed nothing, and Harry quickly recovered his lost chips while Jordon was preparing to reenter.
