Rigby's Day is Done

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Nicholas Rigby
Nicholas Rigby

The always aggressive and entertaining Nicholas Rigby's final bullet of the day was fired after dinner and he passed along the details of his demise to PokerNews.

Rigby opened {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} from under the gun and was called by a player in middle position.

Heads up to a flop of {q-}{6-}{4-Diamonds}, Rigby moved all in for the last of his 30,000 chips and was called by his opponent who held {10-}{10-}.

The board brought Rigby no help and he was eliminated from the tournament for the final time Saturday.

Sarioglu Calls Correctly Versus Check-Raise

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Cem Sarioglu
Cem Sarioglu

With approximately 35,000 in the pot on a completed board of {3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, Kevin Brown checked to Cem Sarioglu, who bet 7,000.

Brown then check-raised to 22,000. Sarioglu didn't seem to love it as he showed Brown his {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, as he made the call.

Brown turned over {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} for a turned set of jacks that fell to Serioglu's flush on the river.
