Shedlowsky Doubles Through Franciosi

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

John Franciosi bet 3,000 on a {2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop from early position, and Stan Shedlowsky made it 10,000 on the button. A third player folded from the blinds, and Franciosi moved in, putting Shedlowsky at risk for about 20,000. Shedlowsky called.

Shedlowsky: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Franciosi: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Franciosi needed a diamond or a king, but neither materialized as the {q-Clubs} and {10-Clubs} were a couple of black blanks on the last two streets.

Dale Olney put in a four-bet from early position to 6,200 preflop and got a call from Philip Wojtunieck in the cutoff. Olney bet 10,000 on the {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop, and Wojtunieck put him all in for 36,650. Olney called.

Olney: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Wojtunieck: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Olney had been outflopped, but he ran a straight as {k-Diamonds} and then {10-Spades} hit the board.

"I was ready to walk outta here," Olney said.

Beat Sends Kessler Packing

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Allen Kessler bet 2,000 from under the gun on a {5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop and got one fold before Neil Coughlin, his other opponent, shoved in the big blind. Kessler quickly called off for what looked to be about 12,500 total.

Kessler: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Coughlin: {q-Spades}{9-Spades}

Kessler's overpair was out front and stayed that way on the {8-Diamonds} turn. Unfortunately for "Chainsaw," the {9-Hearts} river gave Coughlin winning trips.

"Back tomorrow," Kessler said shortly as he got up.

Zuspan Survives

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player under the gun fired out 3,200 into four opponents on a {10-Spades}{j-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop and got a call from only Kenny Zuspan, on his left. The two Buckeye-clad players took in a {k-Hearts} turn, and the first player put Zuspan all in for 9,550. Zuspan sighed but called it off, turning over {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}. He was pleased to see {5-Spades}{3-Spades}, a flush draw, in the hands of his opponent. The {5-Diamonds} river wasn't enough improvement to overtake the queens.

Wojtunieck Doubles Up

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Philip Wojtunieck bet 7,400 from the button in what looked to be a reraised pot after {10-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flopped. His early-position opponent called after getting a count of Wojtunieck's stack, and a {3-Clubs} river prompted him to check-call the rest, 5,425.

Wojtunieck: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}

"Hard to get away from that," Wojtunieck said as the {2-Hearts} hit the river to double him up.
