"The World Versus the World"

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

On a board of {3-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, Jay Feingold was in middle position and check-raised all in for 29,100. Staffan Lind had bet 4,800 into about 6,500 from the button, and he thought a bit before dropping in a stack of calling chips.

Feingold revealed {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a big draw but Lind had the other big draw and the current best hand with {a-Spades}{5-Spades}. The {4-Hearts} river completed both players' hands but Feingold's flush was best.

"The world versus the world," someone said after the hand.

Loffren Rips It

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante

Three players saw the turn with {j-Hearts}{a-Spades}{8-Clubs}{q-Spades} on the felt and action checked to the button, where a player bet 5,500 into about 18,000. Frank Loffren crammed from the small blind for about 33,000 and that was enough to win him the pot without a fight.

Patrick Ibrahim: {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Top pair was way behind for the all-in player and the {8-Diamonds} left him drawing dead on the turn.

Colache Drops a Three-Bet Pot

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

Renata Colache had a raise of unknown quantity in the cutoff with a T5,000 chip out, and Robert Fabianski made it 2,400 on the button. Colache called and both players checked the {j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop, bringing an {8-Hearts}. Colache check-called 2,000 and the {8-Clubs} river checked through.

Colache showed {q-Spades}{10-Spades} but lost to {k-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for kings up.
