Groves Takes One

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

A player raised to 700 from middle position and Don Groves called from the button, as did the player in the big blind. The flop was {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and action checked to Groves who bet 800. Only the preflop raiser called and the turn was the {7-Hearts}. After a check, Groves bet 2,000 and his opponent called. The {a-Diamonds} fell on the river and Groves' opponent again check-called, this time for 4,000.

Groves tabled {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for the flopped set and his opponent mucked.

We caught heads-up action after a flop of {10-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Spades} and Roger Brooks checked-raised to 6,000 after a 2,500 bet from his opponent. Brooks' opponent made the call and the {6-Spades} came on the turn. Brooks moved all in for 4,900 and his opponent thought briefly and eventually made the call.

Brooks: {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Opponent: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The {5-Hearts} river was a blank and Brooks doubled up.

Morita Takes a Nice One

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Daniel Jones limped from middle position, as did a player from right behind. The player in the small blind completed and Gohshi Morita checked from the big blind. The flop came {6-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and after three checks, the player in the hijack bet 400. The player in the small blind folded and Morita raised to 1,100, chasing Jones and receiving a call from the original bettor.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and Morita led for 2,200. His opponent called and the river was the {2-Spades}. Morita bet 5,500 and his opponent made the call, but mucked when Morita turned over {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for the straight.
