Chen Doubles Through Fritzer

Level 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Nan Chen went all-in for 60,000 from early position before Rip Fritzer made the call from the cutoff to put Chen at risk.

Nan Chen: A♥K♥All in
Rip Fritzer: A♦Q♣

Chen was in a dominant situation as he had the better ace with five cards to go.

The 3♣3♥5♦ flop presented some chop possibilities between Chen and Fritzer.

The A♠ turn favored Chen with his better kicker, and the J♦ was the wrong paint card for Fritzer as Chen doubled and Fritzer tumbled down the chip counts.

Ediberto Pilotin opened to 20,000 on the button.

Michael Coggins defended his big blind and sent them to a flop of 4♥4♦J♠ before he checked. Pilotin continued for 18,000, but Coggins responded with a check-raise to 40,000.

Pilotin paused to give it some thought before he three-bet to 100,000.

Coggins did not think long before he mucked his hand to award the pot to Pilotin on the flop.

Morgan Scores Sensational Knockout

Ediberto Pilotin got the action going with an open to 12,000 from under the gun. A player in the cutoff made the call before Dennis Morgan joined with a call from the big blind.

The flop came 2♣2♠A♠ before Morgan and Pilotin checked. The cutoff took the initiative with a bet of 35,000. Morgan called, but Pilotin got out of the fray with a fold.

Morgan checked again on the Q♥ turn before the cutoff kept up the betting with a wager of 60,000.

"I guess I'm going all-in," said Morgan as he pushed his chips in the middle to commit himself for his entire stack.

The cutoff called as the two were in a rare instance where both were at risk since they had the exact same amount of chips, 99,000.

Cutoff: A♥K♣All in
Dennis Morgan: 2♥2♦All in

The cutoff found out the bad news as Morgan flopped four of a kind and had him drawing dead with one card to go.

The river was the salt in the wound when it came the A♦ river to upgrade him to a full house that was still no good in the face of Morgan's quads.

The 9♦ turn put three diamonds out there. Mohler chose to shove for approximately 37,000.

The cutoff lamented the diamond on the turn before he folded to yield the pot to Mohler.
