Oops

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

A player opened to 500 and Jared Jaffee grabbed four chips meaning to reraise to 1,600. He grabbed the wrong chips, however, and actually bet 16,000. The blinds are at 100/200 mind you, so this was a massive overbet. Everyone folded and Greg Ostrander gave a curious look to Jaffee.

"Was that a misclick?" Ostrander asked.

Jaffee didn't understand at first but once he realized he had thrown out the wrong chips, he gave a sheepish grin.

"Everyone at the table was praying for aces," Ostrander laughed.

Last Hand of Action

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Galen Hall raised to 500 and got three callers. On the {K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, everybody checked and Hall then called 700 on the {5-Diamonds} turn from the player in the big blind. One further opponent stuck around as well and the {Q-Hearts} river completed the board. Hall bet 3,175 and that was good enough to take down the pot as both opponents folded.

Hall showed the {8-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and said "last hand of action," as the table got broken shortly after. "Ah well, I got one through or would have had to rebuy." Let's see how he is doing on the next table.

Gohr no More

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Sebastian Gohr raised to 700 after one player limped and two seats over, Tony Dunst three-bet to 2,100. The limper folded and the German moved all in for his remaining 7,075 chips after giving it some thought. Dunst snap called:

Dunst: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Gohr: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Spades} and Gohr was no more.

Taking a Chance

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

On the {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{7-Spades} flop, Chance Kornuth called a bet of 1,100 and did so again on the {2-Hearts} turn for 1,400. After the {6-Hearts} river, the opponent bet 7,000 and that was good enough to take down the pot.
