Ma No Good

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Zedao Ma didn't like what he saw when he called on the river. The board showed {j-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Clubs} and he checked. His opponent bet 54,000 which was just under how much was already in the pot. After a bit of thought, Ma called. His opponent turned over {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Ma shook his head as he mucked his hand.

Rabotkin Doubles Through Tevis

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Vitaly Tevis opened to 15,000 from under-the-gun +1 and action folded around to Dzmitry Rabotkin in the big blind. Rabotkin moved all-in for 127,000 and Tevis went into the tank.

After a few moments, the clock was called on Tevis. With just under 30 seconds left, Tevis made the call, and Rabotkin gave him the bad news.

Rabotkin: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Tevis: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Tevis was in trouble but did have Rabotkin covered. The board ran out {4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Rabotkin scored the easy double up.
