Alberto Holds Against Gordon

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

George Alberto was second to act and had an overbet of 17,000 in front of him with about 13,000 in the pot and {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} on the felt. Arnaldo Gordon opted to shove for about 70,000 from under the gun and Alberto was in there with a quick call, tabling {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Gordon had {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for a straight draw, one he'd hit on the {8-Spades} river. Unfortunately for him, the card preceding that was the {5-Hearts}, so Alberto made a full house.

Ippolito Doubles

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

On a flop of {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, Peter Ippolito got into a raising war with a foe, resulting in both players all in for around 33,000 in the 7,000 or so pot. Ippolito was happy to get his chips in with {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for the current nuts, but he was fading some outs as his opponent had {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. The {q-Spades} turn and {8-Hearts} river weren't enough improvement, and Ippolito narrowly got a full double as he had his opponent covered by about 500.

Brobyn Sliding

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Robert Brobyn, who had the chip lead, was paying out a double when we arrived to Table 40. It looked like he'd gotten his stack in with {j-Spades}{10-Spades} on an eight-high flop containing two spades against his neighbor in the small blind, who had pocket queens. Brobyn paid out 28,500.

Moments later, Brobyn battled with that same player, this time hijack versus cutoff. The board read {7-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Brobyn checked. With about 23,000 in the pot, the cutoff bet 16,000 and Brobyn folded with a sigh.

"Should have just shoved it in," he said. "I almost did. You didn't have a flush. No way you had a flush."
