Ramdin Gets a Fold from Paul

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Aaron Paul checked from the big blind and Victor Ramdin bet 2,100 from middle position on a {j-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop. A player on the button called, as did Paul. On the {k-Diamonds} turn, it was just Paul calling 4,200, and Paul checked a final time when the {9-Diamonds} completed a four-flush. Ramdin bet 6,500, and Paul relented.

Flush Over Flush Cripples Trace O'Connor

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

With 25,000 or so in the pot and a board reading {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, action exploded between Trace O'Connor and Hendrik Latz and resulted in the latter getting his stack of 32,400 in the middle.

O'Connor: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Latz: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Both players had turned a flush, but O'Connor's was second best. The meaningless {4-Spades} was run out on the river, and O'Connor sent all but 4,400 of his chips over toe Latz, who doubled to 90,000.

Foxen Gets There

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Antonio Pace bet 2,600 from middle position against two opponents on a {j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. Alex Foxen made it 6,400 to go in the next seat, and the big blind folded. Pace put his last few chips in; the wager looked to be about 18,000 total. Foxen quickly called with {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} but saw he needed only diamonds as his overcards didn't help against {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}. The turn was a {9-Diamonds} though, and Foxen locked it up. An {a-Diamonds} hit the river.

Bartley Downling vs. Maurice Hawkins

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Bartley Downling raised to 1,800 from early position and Maurice Hawkins, who was next to act, three-bet him to 3,500. Action folded back to Downling and he called to see a {q-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Hearts} flop, which both players checked.

Downling then led out for 3,500 on the {2-Clubs} turn, Hawkins called, and the {6-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Downling bet 5,800 and Hawkins snap-called with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for two pair. Unfortunately for him, it was no good as Downling had flopped a flush with the {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}.

Downling chipped up to 40,000 after the hand while Hawkins fell to 60,000.

High Rollers Go to War

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Steve O'Dwyer busted the high roller and hopped into the Main Event here at PokerStars Championship Bahamas, and he's wasted no time getting busy.

In one recent pot, he bet 3,000 from middle position on a {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop. Anthony Zinno made it 7,000 to go on the button. The big blind folded, and O'Dwyer responded with another raise to 14,000. Zinno tanked a few minutes and folded.
