Tucker Flops His First Royal Flush

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Tim Tucker
Tim Tucker

Run It Up Reno IV Main Event champ Tim Tucker raised to 1,500 from the cutoff, and the button three-bet to 4,600. Tucker called, while telling his opponent to "Be careful!"

Tucker checked an {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop over to the button, who instantly jammed for 17,000. "You wanna take it back?" Tucker said, while showing his hand to his opponent as he called.

Tucker: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Tucker had flopped a Royal Flush, rendering his opponent's flopped set dead before the {3-Spades} turn or {9-Hearts} river could hit the felt.

"Sixty-one years, and that's the first time I've ever flopped a Royal!" Tucker said with a laugh.

Ace from Space Spins Newland's Shove Into Gold

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Vincent Newland
Vincent Newland

The player in the hijack opened for 1,500 and the cutoff called. David Larson, who finished runner up in the Pro Bounty, came along from the button, and then 8-Game Championship runner up Vincent Newland three-bet to 7,000 from the small blind.

The hijack and cutoff both folded before Larson called to see a {9-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop. Newland moved all in for 17,800 and Larson quickly called.

Newland: {a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Larson: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Newland was caught with his hand in the cookie jar, but instead of being punished he was rewarded with the {a-Clubs} on the turn. The {9-Spades} river was no help to Larson and he sent double-up chips to Newland.

Nevius Goes From One Queen To Four

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

A player jammed his last 2,400 in from UTG, and Steve Nevius called in middle position. The small blind called, and Jason Mangold three-bet shoved for 14,000 in the big blind. Nevius called, and the small blind called for slightly less.

Nevius: {q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Mangold: {a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
UTG: {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Small Blind: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Nevius leapt in front on a {q-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop, and locked Mangold and the small blind out of the hand when the {q-Clubs} fell on the turn. The UTG player could still quadruple up with a four on the river, but Nevius rivered quads with the {q-Spades}, earning him a triple KO and sending Mangold to re-enter.
