Morse Off to a Good Start

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

Sandra Morse raised to 600 from middle position only to have Carlos Pal three-bet to 1,800 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Morse and she called to see a {2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{a-Hearts} flop.

Morse check-called a bet of 1,200 and then both players checked the {8-Spades} turn.

When the {4-Hearts} completed the board on the river, Morse led out for 2,500 and that did the trick as Pal released his hand.

Pokrivnak Takes from Kassela

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Three-time bracelet winner and 2010 WSOP Player of the Year Frank Kassela raised to 800 under the gun and action folded all the way around to Andy Pokrivnak, who called from the big blind.

Both players checked the {9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} flop and then Pokrivnak led out for 1,200 on the {2-Diamonds} turn. Kassela called and then called a bet of 1,500 from Pokrivnak on the {10-Clubs} river.

Kassela showed the {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for top pair but it was no good as Pokrivnak had rivered two pair with his {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

Schackman Doubles Back to Starting Stack

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

Dylan Schackman got his stack of 7,400 all in preflop and was at risk against Patrick Carroll.

Carroll: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Schackman: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

Schackman was ahead but the {10-Spades}{q-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop made things interesting by giving Carroll an open-ended straight draw. Fortunately for Schackman, neither the {q-Clubs} turn nor {8-Hearts} river completed it and he shipped the double. Carroll was left with just 4,000 after the hand.
