Golub Gets Esposti

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Paul Esposti was first into the pot with a raise to 3,100. Action folded to Mark Golub on the big blind and he made the call.

Golub elected to lead out for 4,100 on the {2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop, and Esposti went into the tank for a few seconds before releasing his hand. "Your seven is good," he said. Golub didn't reply as he mucked his hand and collected the pot.

Turn Check-Jam Chips Up Boyer

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A player in early position raised to 2,600, the player next to act called and so did Jonathan Boyer. Deven Lane was on the button and three bet to 8,100. The original raiser folded and the two players left to act called.

Action was checked to Lane on the flop {5-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and he put out a continuation bet of 10,000. The next player folded and Boyer put Lane all in for his last 18,900. Lane folded quickly and Boyer took down the pot.

Roque and Shiska Battle in Two Hands

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

In the first of two hands featuring Bel Roque and Dave Shiska, Shiska limped in from under the gun, and Bel Roque raised it up to 2,400 from the button. The big blind called, as did Shiska.

They all checked the {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, but when it checked to Shiska on the {2-Hearts} turn he fired 1,800 into the middle. Roque came back over top with a raise, and both the big blind and Shiska got out of the way. Roque showed {a-}{10-} for trip tens as he collected the pot.

In the next hand, Roque limped in from the cutoff, and it folded to Shiska in the big blind and he checked his option. They both checked the full board of {6-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts} and chopped the pot with both players playing the board.

Rex Wins It After Misclick from Weenusk

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

Paul Weenusk got the betting started with a limp and he was called by Richard Rex in the small blind while Jason Wilson checked his option in the big. All three players checked through the {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop and turn, but when the {3-Diamonds} hit the river, Rex fired 1,000 into the middle.

Wilson mucked his hand, but Weenusk tried to call. Unfortunately, he live mis-clicked, accidentally sending 2 white chips to the middle instead of one. He tried to retrieve one, but the dealer ruled it a raise. Rex came back over top with another raise to 4,500, forcing Weenusk to muck his hand.
