Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante
Jessie Baldwin
Jessie Baldwin

Three players saw a {9-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop together, and action checked to Ray Albritton on the button, who bet 1,200. Only Jessie Baldwin in early position called.

Baldwin checked the {7-Hearts} turn over to Albritton, who bet 2,200. Baldwin made the call again.

Both players quickly checked the {5-Diamonds} on the river, and Albritton showed {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} for a busted nut flush draw and ace-high. Baldwin turned over {7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for a straight, and he took down the pot.

Hart Slows Down Cittadino

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante
Rhonda Hart
Rhonda Hart

On a {5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{j-Diamonds} flop, action checked over to Rhonda Hart in middle position, who bet 2,000 into a pot of around 4,000. Sam Cittadino, who has been on a tear in the opening levels, made the call out of the small blind, and the rest of the field folded.

"Check in the dark," Cittadino said before the {2-Spades} could fall on the turn. Hart bet 3,000, and Cittadino called.

The {4-Spades} fell on the river, and Cittadino led out for 3,200. Hart quickly called, and Cittadino said, "Good hand, Miss Rhonda," as he tabled his {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}, and his read was correct, as his pair of tens were beaten by the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} of Hart.

Westbrook Cracks Jacks

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Charles Westbrook checked an {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} board from the small blind, and James Berry bet 2,000 into a pot of 4,000 from the big blind. Westbrook responded with a check-raise to 5,000, and Berry called.

Westbrook bet another 5,000 on the {10-Clubs} river, and Berry paused for a moment before tossing in a chip to call. Westbrook turned over {5-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a straight, and Berry looked at his cards for a few moments, flashing {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} before mucking.

"Flopped it," Westbrook told Berry as he stacked up his chips.

Sam Cittadino
Sam Cittadino

Sam Cittadino, who won his seat to this event via a cash game promotion at Hollywood Gulf Coast Casino, raised to 1,400 from under the gun, and was called by Rhonda Hart in the cutoff, as well as the button. William Hendrix three-bet to 6,400 from the small blind, and Cittadino and Hart called, while the button folded.

Hendrix ripped his last 13,000 in on the {4-Clubs}{a-Spades}{10-Spades} flop, and Cittadino called. Hart folded, and Cittadino told Hendrix, "I just have an ace," to which Hendrix grimaced and responded, "Of course you do."

William Hendrix: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Sam Cittadino: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Hendrix couldn't find a king on the {7-Diamonds} turn or {10-Clubs} river, and he hit the rail, while Cittadino shoots to the top of the counts early on Day 1a.
