Frank and Finger Make an Interesting Pot

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Christopher "lissi stinkt" Frank raised to 15,890 and Martin "0PIGGYBANK" Finger defended his big blind to see the {q-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop where he tapped.

Frank continued, betting 14,798 and Finger quickly check-raised to 49,000. Frank called and an {8-Hearts} turn card landed on the board.

Finger bet 105,210 into the pot and Frank called once more. The {j-Hearts} river completed the board, Finger tapped and Frank checked behind.

Finger turned over {4-Spades}{3-Spades} for just a pair of threes, a pair that was good right up until the river that hit Frank's {j-Spades}{9-Spades}, giving him jacks to take down the odd hand.

The action fell on Andrey "kot_spartac" Kotelnikov who raised to 17,200 from the button. "temp0r2k" defended their big blind to see the {4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop where they check-called a bet of 12,064 by Kotelnikov.

The turn brought a {9-Hearts}, "temp0r2k" checked and Kotelnikov bet 47,019, which was quickly check-called.

"KingKomeron": {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
"OrangemanXD": {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The board rolled out {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and the dimes of "KingKomeron" prevailed, taking down the pot for a complete double.

Porto Takes Down a Big Pot with Big Slick

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

Bruno "brunoporto12" Porto raised to 60,400 in the cutoff and "DOCTORB911" three-bet jammed 461,182 from the small blind, Porto called.

"DOCTORB911": {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Bruno "brunoporto12" Porto: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The big slick had a monster lead and the {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop did all but seal it for Porto. A {9-Diamonds} turn did finish the job though, having "DOCTORB911" drawing dead to the {a-Spades} river.

Porto pulled in the pot and is just shy of the million mark after dropping "DOCTORB911" from the field.

Treys Stand Strong for "JEKAAA7"

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

"jonhf90" raised to 22,000 from the button and "JEKAAA7" three-bet for more than enough to cover the button player. "jonhf90" called for less, putting in 325,230 and was at risk.

"jonhf90": {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
"JEKAAA7": {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}

The {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop left threes in the lead. A {10-Hearts} turn and {4-Diamonds} river changed not a thing, shipping the pot to "JEKAAA7" who now has just under a million in chips.
