Superior Flush of "real stu pidazo" Gives Him the Chip Lead

Blinds 3,000-6,000

"justinbrown69" opened under the gun to 12,000, Peter "PLH729" Hotaling called from one seat over, and "real stu pidazo" called in the small blind.

The three players saw a flop of {6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and "justinbrown69" bet 18,000. Hotaling raised to 51,000, "real stu pidazo" called, and "justinbrown69" folded. The {8-Diamonds} turn saw both players check, and on the {3-Spades} river, "real stu pidazo" led for 27,000, Hotaling shoved for 69,530, and "real stu pidazo" called.

Peter "PLH729" Hotaling: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
"real stu pidazo": {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Both players made a strong flush on the turn, but "real stu pidazo" held the nut flush and Hotaling was eliminated.

"C0LD_W0RLD" Rivers to Double and Stay Alive

Blinds 2,500-5,000

"Brown$tone420" limped from the hijack and "justinbrown69" raised to 15,000 in the cutoff. "C0LD_W0RLD" jammed for 85,026 from the big blind and was called only by "justinbrown69".

"C0LD_W0RLD": {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
"justinbrown69": {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The flop {k-Spades}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} gave both players a pair but kept "C0LD_W0RLD" ahead. The {j-Spades} changed that and put "justinbrown69" into the lead, however, the {3-Clubs} completed the board to give "C0LD_W0RLD" better two pair and keep him alive.

"VryAvrg": {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
"Jbird401": {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

"VryAvrg" was looking good on the {j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop. The {k-Hearts} turn provided a sweat, but the {3-Spades} river ensured the rockets were good for the pot.

Rollercoaster Ends with Sears' Better Boat Winning Pot

Blinds 1,750-3,500

"jamblance75" open-shoved for 53,012 from middle position and Daniel "BiggYBlains22" Sears called in the hijack.

Daniel "BiggYBlains22" Sears: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
"jamblance75": {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

"jamblance75" was slightly ahead, but that changed on the {8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop. The {9-Spades} turn shook up the hand again, putting "jamblance75" in front with a boat. And since there apparently weren't enough lead-changes in the hand, the {a-Clubs} spiked on the river, giving Sears a better boat and the chips.
