Michael Hahn
Michael Hahn

Michael Hahn just got a pretty big double up, and it started after his under-the-gun raise was three-bet by the player in the small blind. Hahn called the three-bet and checked the {j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop to his opponent. His opponent wasted no time before shoving all in and putting Hahn to the test. It wasn't much of a test for Hahn, though, as he snap-called with the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for two pair and was ahead of the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} of his opponent.

The turn and the river completed the board with the {5-Diamonds} and the {10-Spades}, giving Hahn a full house and the double up.

Tucker Takes Out Two

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Denny Tucker just knocked out two players.

The first player that was all in had about 6,000 in chips, and the other player all in shoved over the top for about 22,000. Tucker already had some money in the pot from previous action, but didn't need to think about it at all with his {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}. His two opponents held the {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and the {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}.

Tucker stayed ahead after the board ran out {5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}.

Hahn Shoots Second

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Michael Hahh and Arkan Batu
Michael Hahh and Arkan Batu

Michael Hahn just eliminated Arkan Batu after Batu shoved all in over Hahn's flop bet.

Three players saw the flop of {6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, and Hahn led out for 2,100 before Batu shoved over the top for 24,375. The third player folded before Hahn went into the tank.

After counting and recounting the calling chips and his remaining stack, Hahn called and saw that he was ahead with {a-}{10-}. Batu had {j-}{10-}. The board ran out {5-} on the turn and {q-} on the river, which meant Batu didn't catch up. Hahn won the pot and moved to over 70,000.

Batu Back

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

No less than 10 minutes after being eliminated by Michael Hahn, Arkan Batu was all in again. This time against Adam Lamphere.

The board read {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, and Batu shoved all in for his remaining 9,500. Lamphere wrestled with the decision before calling by slowly letting each chip call into the pot, causing them to roll in circles until they fell flat on the table.

After that, Batu turned over {j-}{4-} for a full house, and Lamphere mucked his hand.
