Carnes Doubles Up

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player in the cutoff bet approximately 3,800 on a {4-Spades}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} board, and Wilson Carnes pushed all in for 5,250 in the small blind. Kyle Cartwright folded, and the bettor called, showing {k-Spades}{j-Spades} for kings up. Unfortunately for him, Carnes picked up a straight with {10-Clubs}{9-Spades} on the same card that two-paired him, and Carnes held as the {7-Hearts} hit the river.

Schultz Not Resting on Laurels

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Barry Schultz
Barry Schultz

Barry Schultz holds a solid lead with 49 points on the leaderboard for this stop of the Hollywood Poker Open, while second-place Kenneth Ervin has 36. Despite the spot, he isn't resting on his laurels, trying to accumulate more in the main event.

In one recent pot, a player limped under the gun and another raised to 700 in the cutoff, and Schultz three-bet to 2,500 in the small blind. He got calls from both the big blind and the limper, and everyone checked the {4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop, leading to a {6-Hearts} turn. Schultz's 5,000 bet took it down at that point.

Kyle Cartwright
Kyle Cartwright

Kyle Cartwright called 1,800 from the player on his right on a {9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Spades} board, and the player barreled out with 7,000 on the {5-Diamonds} river. Cartwright leaned forward and muttered to himself for a minute or two before opting to call, and his opponent indicated Cartwright had the winner. The five-time ring winner showed {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and took the pot.

Rough Start for Moneymaker

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Tour ambassador Chris Moneymaker joined in a multi-way limped pot which saw the big blind raise to 2,000, leaving himself 50 behind. The first couple of limpers folded, and Moneymaker jammed for about 6,000. Action folded back to the raiser, who called.

Moneymaker: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}
Big blind: {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Moneymaker had found a good spot and looked likely to grab the knockout as {3-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} hit the board, but a {4-Diamonds} saved the big blind.
