"I'll Gamble with You"

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action folded around LFG Podcast co-host Jamie Kerstetter in the small blind and she limped. Joel Danforth was in the big and checked his option to see a {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop.

Kerstetter checked, Danforth bet 2,200, and Kerstetter called to see the {9-Spades} on the turn. Again she checked and Danforth bet 4,100. Kerstetter woke up with an all-in check-raise to 19,600 and action was back on Danforth.

"I'll gamble with you," he said before calling and tabling an open-ended straight draw.

Kerstetter: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Danforth: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Kerstetter was ahead with top two pair and she improved to a full house on the {j-Hearts} river. LFG!

Capps Can't Lose

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jesse Capps
Jesse Capps

Jesse Capps raised to 2,700 from middle position and the player in the hijack flatted. The player on the button then moved all in for 41,100, both blinds folded, and Capps called. The hijack got out of the way and the hands were turned up.

Capps: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Button: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The {j-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop gave Capps a freeroll to running spades, but the {6-Clubs} turn took away any chance of that happening. The meaningless {q-Diamonds} was run out on the river and then the pot was chopped up.

While he didn't win that pot, Capps has been on a heater and is closing in on the first player to reach the 200K mark.
