"TARA96" Hits Quads for a Bounty

HillKerby

In Level 12 with blinds of 1,600/3,200 and an ante of 400, all of the chips got into the middle preflop between "TARA96" in the big blind and "FellateMe" in early position, with the latter of the two at risk for 49,800.

"FellateMe":
"TARA96":

The flop came to put "TARA96" even further ahead. However, they picked up a small sweat on the turn , giving "FellateMe" a backdoor draw to Broadway. Instead, the river was all "TARA96," giving them quads to earn them the knockout.

"FellateMe" wasted no time re-entering to get back in on the action as a handful of minutes remain in the registration period.

"goods21" Almost Earns a Bounty

HillKerby

In Level 11 with blinds of 1,400/2,800 and an ante of 350, action folded around to "FellateMe," who was on the button and jammed for 29,650. "goods21" called in the small blind.

"FellateMe":
"goods21":

"FellateMe" was ahead but needed to fade two live cards. Instead, they saw the flop come to leave them with three immediate outs as "goods21" flopped top pair. The turn brought four more outs at a backdoor gutshot straight draw, and the river completed it to bail out "FellateMe" with a straight, putting them back on top to earn the double.

There was 39,000 in the pot from preflop action as "IveySister99" and "whatever" continued to the streets for a side pot.

The flop dropped and "IveySister99" bet 9,600. "whatever" jammed for around 50,000 more and "IveySister99" quickly folded.

"MDpoker":
"whatever":
