Laskowitz Bricks Out

Level 7 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Sam Laskowitz opened the action with a raise to 10,000 from the cutoff, which was called by the small blind Michael Berk.

After the flop came 985 Berk decided to lead out for a bet of 10,000, which Laskowitz called.

The turn was the 3 and Berk bet again, this time sizing up to 50,000. Laskowitz then moved all-in, and Berk quickly flipped in a chip to call.

Sam Laskowitz: 86 All in
Michael Berk: A9

Berk was ahead with his top pair, but Laskowitz had lots of outs, with second pair, a flush draw, and a straight draw. However, the river bricked out for Laskowitz, sending the pot to Berk and Laskowitz was eliminated.

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Jeremy Ausmus moved all in from under the gun for his stack of 46,500, and it folded to David Coleman in the cutoff, who asked "how much is that?". He took a moment before making the call, which got the button and blinds to quickly fold, leaving the players heads up with Ausmus at risk.

Jeremy Ausmus: A8 All in
David Coleman: A8

Once Ausmus reveled his hand, Coleman jokingly said "what a piece s%#t" hand that is" as he tabled the same hand.

With a chop seeming likely, the flop came 433 giving both players a backdoor flush draw. The Q brought in a flush draw for Coleman, although he did not realize it and took his chips back, thinking it was a chop.

But the river was the Q to give Coleman the nut flush, but his head was still down and didn't realize it until Ausmus, who was stunned, said "What was that?".

Coleman then realized he made a flush, saying "I really thought we chopped on the turn." as he took the pot and Ausmus was eliminated.

Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 6105 and roughly 30,000 in the pot.

Jesse Lonis checked from the small blind, and the big blind Natalie Ferguson bet out 9,000. Sam Laskowitz to her left then put in a raise to 31,500.

Lonis as the covering stack, then put in a three-bet all in, which got Ferguson to fold, and Laskowitz called for roughly 95,000 total.

Sam Laskowitz: A6 All in
Jesse Lonis: Q9

Laskowitz was ahead with his pair of sixes, but Lonis had two overs and a flush draw to take the lead. The Q on the turn gave Lonis the lead, and the 4 completed the board to bring in his flush, giving the pot to Lonis and sending Laskowitz to the rebuy desk.
