Tepen Gets In With a Lock

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante
Ryan Tepen
Ryan Tepen

Ryan Tepen opened from middle position to 1,300 and got three-bet to 3,600 by Cash Carpenter in the big blind. Tepen made the call, and a {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop fell. Carpenter bet 4,500, and Tepen called. An {a-Spades} turned, and Carpenter bet 6,500. Tepen thought for about a minute, staring at Carpenter with a puzzled look before jamming for 16,425. Carpenter quickly called.

Carpenter: {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Tepen: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Tepen's top two was a lock, and he could only lose some of the pot if another eight hit to make both players eights full of aces. The {10-Spades} river gave Carpenter a better two pair, but it wasn't enough.

Carpenter Dominates One

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

The same player who was victimized by Ross Bybee just lost the remainder of his stack to Cash Carpenter. On an {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop, the player bet 5,000 into a pot of about 6,000, and Carpenter shoved all in, putting his opponent at risk for 6,150 more. The player called.

Carpenter: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Carpenter faded the jack on the last two streets.

Bybee's Overshove Pays

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Ross Bybee shoved all in for more than the size of the pot on a board of {8-Hearts}{10-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Spades} in the hijack. His opponent in the cutoff tanked for a few minutes, contemplating the 12,400 bet into a pot about half of that size. After a few minutes, the player called.

Bybee: {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Cutoff: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Bybee was up against a draw, and he was the one who improved as the {10-Diamonds} river gave him a full house.

Tucker Still Climbing

Level 6 : 200/400, 75 ante
Issac "Rungood" Tucker has a big early stack.
Issac "Rungood" Tucker has a big early stack.

Bernard Lee bet 1,725 into a pot of about 4,000 on a {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop. Rodney Spriggs shoved all in for 2,400, and Issac "Rungood" Tucker made the call from the button. Lee called also, and both players checked the {a-Spades} turn. On the {9-Hearts} river, Lee checked and then called 7,000 from Tucker.

Tucker showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for trips.

"So sick," Lee said. "So frickin' sick."

Lee said he had ace-king, and we didn't see Spriggs' hand.

Murff Bet-Calls Top Pair

Level 6 : 200/400, 75 ante

David Murff bet 3,000 on a {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop from the hijack after a few players checked to him. The small blind moved all in for 9,150, and Murff thought for about a minute before calling with {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for top pair. He was ahead, as his opponent had {a-Clubs}{5-Spades} for second pair, and Murff's lead was preserved by a {9-Spades} turn and {7-Hearts} river.

Walker Binks Turn to KO Three

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante
Julie Walker
Julie Walker

We arrived at Table 15 as the dealer was sorting out side pots for a four-way all in on a flop of {9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. After the three pots were separated, the cards were flipped.

Julie Walker: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Middle position: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Late position: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Cutoff: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The player in middle position was in great shape with a set, as the two players with top pair were drawing very slim. Walker found the {q-Clubs} on the turn though, filling her double-gutshot straight draw.

"Pair the board," the player with sevens said.

"Don't pair it," Walker countered.

It was the latter, as a {2-Hearts} fell, and Walker dragged the massive early pot.
