Talbot Hits Turn to Double and Banters in Chat

Level 8 : 1,250/2,500, 325 ante

Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot opened to 5,500 in early position and Stevan "random_chu" Chew three-bet to 17,500 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Talbot who put his 107,824 stack into the middle. Chew called and players revealed their hands.

Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Stevan "random_chu" Chew: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The {9-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop kept Chew in the lead, but the {a-Spades} turn moved Talbot in front. With Chew needing a river king or spade, the {q-Diamonds} sent the pot Talbot's way.

After the hand, Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit mentioned he had an ace "just to tilt him more". The three players joked around with each other in the chat, leading Kanit to muse that Talbot is quite friendly, especially after hitting a two-outer, to which Talbot replied, "hahaha so true".

Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane opened to 4,540 on the button and "DotComRicher" three-bet in the small blind to 12,000. Jargo "bungakat" Alavali folded his big blind and Cochrane called.

Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane: {j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
"DotComRicher": {j-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Both players made top pair on the turn but it was Cochrane ahead with his ace kicker. The {k-Diamonds} river sent the pot to Cochrane and sent "DotComRicher" on his way out.

Level 7 : 1,000/2,000, 250 ante

Benjamin "bencb789" Rolle opened to 3,225 and Joris "BillLewinsky" Ruijs three-bet to 9,675.

Benjamin "bencb789" Rolle: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Jonathan "Proudflop" Proudfoot: {k-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Rolle's rockets were in great shape against the big slick of Proudfoot, and had claimed the pot by the turn on the {9-Hearts}{6-Spades}{9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {7-Spades} board.

"DingeBrinker" Cracks Cowboys to Jump into Chip Lead

Level 6 : 700/1,500, 185 ante

Andras "probirs" Nemeth opened to 3,285 from the cutoff and "DingeBrinker" made it 13,200 from the small blind. "Kraskata85" then cold four-bet from the big blind to 27,000 and Nemeth went all in for 85,907. "DingeBrinker" got his chips in, as did "Kraskata85" and hands were revealed.

"Kraskata85": {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
"DingeBrinker": {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Andras "probirs" Nemeth: {j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

"Kraskata85" was ahead but the ladies of "DingeBrinker" found another lady on the flop of {8-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{q-Spades} to take the lead. The {4-Clubs} came on the turn and "Kraskata85" was drawing dead as Nemeth needed a king or a nine for a straight, but it was the {2-Spades} on the river to eliminate two and catapult "DingeBrinker" to the top of the leaderboard.
