O'Donnell Doubles Through McKinney

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Kyle McKinney bet an unknown amount with two T1,000 chips on a board of {5-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Kevin O'Donnell made it 3,000 from the big blind. Andre Allen cold-called in the next seat, and McKinney came along to see a {2-Diamonds} river. He checked, and O'Donnell jammed for 5,025. Allen folded right away and McKinney thought a bit and called.

O'Donnell showed {q-Spades}{j-Hearts} and McKinney couldn't beat it.

Gingerich Folds to Mader

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Phil Mader
Phil Mader

Henry Gingerich bet 2,000 from the button when Phil Mader checked a {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop. Mader called, and both checked the {10-Diamonds} turn. Mader fired 5,000 on the {9-Diamonds} river, and Gingerich folded in fairly short order.

Gingerich has won a previous RunGood event here but he has work to do if he wants to win another as he has less than half of a starting stack.

Friendly Flop for Fink

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Mark Fink was under the gun and bet 3,000 on a completed board of {9-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{k-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Spades} with about 5,000 already in the pot. An opponent in middle position hemmed and hawed for a bit before splashing in a call. Fink showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a flopped straight and his opponent mucked {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

Brin Crushing Already

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Jeff Brin
Jeff Brin

Jeff Brin just sat down but almost immediately found himself all in. As Dan Hamm told it, there were a couple of early limps before Brin raised in middle position, and Jim Devaney reraised in the blinds. An early limper tried calling but accidentally reraised, and Jose Mendoza, who had also limped, go it all in. Brin went all in, as did Devaney, and the limper followed suit.

Brin: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Mendoza: {q-}{q-}
Early position: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Devaney: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Devaney had the lead but it evaporated in short order as {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flopped. The {5-Diamonds} turn gave Brin even more of a stranglehold, and the {8-Spades} sent him the pot, busting three opponents in the process.
