Meidinger Gets Kicked to the Rail

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Four players headed to a flop of K98 in a single-raised pot with around 6,000 in the middle. Steve Berger kicked things off with a bet of 5,100 and Jaimie Meidinger pushed all in for around 16,000 on his left. The action folded back to Berger who quickly made the call.

Jaimie Meidinger: KQAll in
Steve Berger: AK

Meidinger had some kicker problems and was left drawing to just three outs. The 9 and 2 runout was not going to help and Berger claimed the pot.

Double KO for Cassiday-Maloney

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

After a few players limped in, Michael Cassiday-Maloney raised it up from the big blind and still found three callers. An action flop of K87 hit the felt and Cassiday-Maloney continued with a bet. The player on his left just called and another player jammed all in for around 30,000. Cassiday-Maloney also shoved all in as the big stack and the player on his left called off his stack of 19,500.

Michael Cassiday-Maloney: AK

Cassiday-Maloney was currently in the lead but he acknowledged that he had a lot of cards to fade. The turn was the 10 which narrowed his opponent's outs and the 2 river improved Cassiday-Maloney to a flush and eliminated both of his opponents.

Crooks Steals a Pot

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

After a couple of limps, Derek Crooks raised to 1,500 on the button and was called in two spots. The flop came J87 and Crooks continued with a bet of 2,000. Jon Maras was the only player to call from the cutoff as the 10 landed on the turn.

Both players checked and the 10 paired the board on the river. Maras led out with a bet of 6,000 and Crooks flicked in a call. Maras dumped his cards into the muck and Crooks stole the pot without having to show his cards.

A completed board of A65K4 was spread across the felt with three players still active in the hand. Judith Wiehr was first to act and led out with a bet of 1,500 from the big blind.

She was called by the cutoff and Jaimie Meidinger also called from the button. Wiehr turned over 55 for a set of fives and neither of her opponents could beat her.
