Fink Has Lots of Outs

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Mark Fink
Mark Fink

Mark Fink check-raised to 4,100 in a blind battle after {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flopped and the big blind bet 1,600. That player moved in for about 17,000 and Fink thought briefly before splashing in a call.

Fink: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Big blind: {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Fink had a pile of outs, and the {a-Hearts} bricked the turn but an {8-Hearts} river gave him a winning straight.

Smith Doubles Through Brin

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Jeff Brin opened for 1,200 early and called the shove of Kipp Smith, who had only 7,000 in the small blind.

Brin: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Smith: {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

The dealer put down a flop and revealed the door card of {2-Clubs}.

"Don't give him a club!" Smith shouted, but indeed the {5-Hearts}{a-Clubs} followed to give Brin outs to a flush.

A {k-Spades} brought him a straight draw as well, and a {5-Clubs} river gave him a flush but made Smith a full house.

"Boat!" Smith said. "Boats and hoes!"

One-Outer

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

We found Henry Gingerich in the big blind and tanking against a 12,000 bet from Shawn Meyer, who was under the gun with the community reading {6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}. Gingerich looked pained and finally called.

Meyer showed {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} for a set.

"One-outer, so sick," Gingerich muttered. He flashed what looked like {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} to his neighbor.

Perfect Flop for Hamm

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Dan Hamm
Dan Hamm

Dan Hamm got in a raising war postflop on a {2-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} board, ending with his last 14,000 or so all in. He had three-bet it preflop, and his opponent under the gun put him at risk with {a-}{k-}. Hamm had him utterly crushed with {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} though, and a {7-Hearts} turn ended things for him.
