Weinman Records a KO

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Daniel Weinman just eliminated a player who was all in and at risk for his last 50,000 or so. Weinman's {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} dominated his opponent's {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}, and he held as the flop, turn, and river came {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}.

Weird One for Winter

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Five players saw a flop of {2-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, including Antonio Esfandiari, Jude Ainsworth, and Sean Winter. The action folded to Esfandiari, who tossed out 6,700 near the button. Ainsworth called in the small blind, Winter check-raised to 15,700, and the action folded back to Esfandiari. He considered the bet before folding, and then Ainsworth re-raised, plopping 34,000 in front of him. Winter called.

The turn was the {7-Clubs}, both players checked, and the {4-Hearts} completed the board. The pair knuckled once again, and Ainsworth showed {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for a pair of kings. Winter had that beat with {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} for a pair of aces, and the two shared a laugh as the American raked in the pot.

Smith Doubles Through Colman

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

The board read {2-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and there was already over 55,000 in the middle when Dan Smith faced a bet of 28,000 from Daniel Colman. Smith called to see a river.

The {k-Hearts} completed the board and Colman announced an all in bet. Smith quickly called off his last 62,900 and triumphantly tabled {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for a full house of queens full of tens. Colman mucked his hand and Smith was able to score a double.

"That a nice turn, Dan," said Colman. "How'd you do that?"

Smith flashed a grin back while he stacked his chips.

"My life is not bad but yours is just so much better," continued Colman. "How nice is your life?"

"I'm not complaining," replied a smiling Smith.

Not complaining indeed, as he is now sitting on 255,000 in chips while Colman's stack has been reduced to 62,000.
