More Flips

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The break has once again jump-started the $50 flips. Ten players put up the $50 each for a seat in the $420 Southern Poker Open. In the latest round, the best preflop hand went to Seat 1 with {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}. Ross Bybee held the second-best preflop hand with {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}. However, it was seat 5 who took down the seat with {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} when the board ran out {8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Second Break

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Level 8 has come to an end which brings us to another 15-minute break. When the players return, Level 9 will begin with binds of 600/1,200 with a 1,200 big blind ante.

Kyle Robinson Flops It

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Kyle Robinson was heads up with the flop reading {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

His opponent bet 3,000 into the 6,000 pot and Robinson raised to 12,000. His opponent called.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and Robinson bet 21,000 when his opponent checked again. His opponent called.

The river was the {8-Diamonds} and it checked to Robinson again. He moved all-in and his opponent called. Robinson showed {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a flopped flush. His opponent had only {a-}{j-} and headed to the rail.

Jacks Hold for Morris

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

An early position raiser made it 1,600 to go and two players called. Richard Morris then three-bet to 12,000. The action folded back to the initial raiser, who moved all-in. Morris's opponent had him covered; if Morris called, he would be the one all-in. After a brief time in the tank, Morris decided to put himself at risk and call.

Morris - {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent - {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Morris was in good shape but had to hold to survive. The flop came {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, giving Morris's opponent a gutshot as well as set outs. The turn changed nothing with the {3-Clubs}; and the board completed with the {q-Hearts} to secure Morris the double up.

White Moving Up, Lehr Checks

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Keith Lehr was the first to act on a {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop. Kimberly Martin bet 5,000 and three players folded, Lehr was the lone caller.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and Martin, who didn't realize Lehr had not acted, quickly moved all in.

"Check. I check," Lehr said with a smile shortly before he mucked.

Martin collected the pot.

Nearby, Lonnie White who was eliminated earlier in the day and reentered scooped up a pot and sent Jacob Seale to the rail. Seale is a familar face from RunGood stops in the past and had two second-place finishes in two different RunGood Poker Series Main Events during the last season. One of this runner-up finishes was right here at the Bossier City Horseshoe.
