Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Shawn Roberts
Shawn Roberts

After a {3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop with over 20,000 in the middle, Shawn Roberts got his stack of about 24,000 in from the cutoff with {j-Spades}{3-Spades} for two pair. He was up against a player holding {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} on the button and it ran {10-Hearts}, {7-Hearts} to keep the jacks up best. Roberts had his opponent very slightly covered and he dragged the pot.

Abel Runs Out Well

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Three players checked to Griffin Abel and he bet 3,300 from the hijack on {6-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. A player on the button called and the river brought the {7-Clubs}. Abel bet 5,000. His opponent tank-called and Abel scooped it with {a-Clubs}{10-Spades} for the nut flush.

Abel's coming off back-to-back 11th- and 10th-place finishes, respectively, at HPT The Meadows and HPT Columbus.

Jerry Gumila bet 9,000 after one player checked on {k-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{j-Hearts} and a player in the big blind called. They went heads up to the {5-Clubs} river and Gumila bet another 10,000. His opponent splashed in 20,000 and Gumila instantly called.

The big blind showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for trips but Gumila had him outkicked with {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}.

Abel Scoops a Massive Pot, Busts Aaron Massey Before Dinner

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

We didn't see the action, but three players wound up all in on a {4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop: Aaron Massey in the small blind, the big blind and Griffin Abel on the button.

Aaron Massey: {a-}{8-}
Big blind: {10-}{10-}
Griffin Abel: {2-}{2-}

"Looks like I got some work ahead of me," said Massey, who was by far the shortest of the three.

The {4-Clubs} was a start as it left him with left outs to eights full, but the {q-Diamonds} river kept Abel's boat best. He scooped up Massey's stack and earned a full double for just under 105,000 against the big blind.

Players are now on dinner for 60 minutes.
