Rough Beat for Thomas

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Ben Thomas pushed all in for 6,150 on a {6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop from the big blind. His opponent on the button thought a couple of minutes and called with {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} but he trailed Thomas' {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Unfortunately for Thomas, the {a-Diamonds} hit on the turn and he was left waving his hand in frustration as he was sent to the rail.

Reason Loses a Chunk

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player open-shoved for 10,100 in middle position, and RunGood Pro Ben Reason reshipped in the cutoff. Nobody else wanted to take the action, so it was heads-up and cards up.

Reason: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Reason lost the race as he was unable to improve on the {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs} runout.

Gaviao Mucks the Turn

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player limped in, and RunGood Pro Jonathan Gaviao popped it to 1,400. He got calls from both the limper and the player on the button. The flop came {3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and both of Gaviao's opponents called his continuation-bet of 1,400. Gaviao bet 3,500 on the {10-Clubs} turn, and after about a two-minute tank, the player on the button pushed all in for 11,025 more. The squeezed player folded, and Gavaio tanked awhile himself before mucking.
