Rodney Spriggs
Rodney Spriggs

A player in first position moved all-in for 5,600 and action folded around to Rodney Spriggs in the hijack who three-bet to 15,600 which folded out all other action.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Rodney Spriggs: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The flop came out {4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds} which gave the first position player a double gutshot straight draw, but the turn of {k-Diamonds} and river {4-Diamonds} saw no improvement to the ace-five and Spriggs took down the pot.

"100 Bucks Says You're Ahead!"

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player in first position moved all-in for 10,500 and action folded around to the button where Freddy Johnson went into the tank.

After some talking between two players, the first position player said "100 bucks says you're ahead!" Johnson thought about his decision for a little bit more than put in the chips to put his opponent at risk, with all other players folding out.

Opponent: {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Freddy Johnson: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Spades}{a-Hearts} with both players flopping straight draws, both missing and the river leaving queen-high as the winning hand and Johnson added to his chip stack.

John Heckencamp
John Heckencamp

A player in early position raised to 500 and John Heckencamp called from middle position with another player calling from the cutoff. In the big blind another player raised to 2,000 which folded out none of the other players and the flop was seen four ways.

The flop of {j-Spades}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades} saw the big blind move all-in for 34,200 and Heckencamp called the all-in for his stack with all other players folding.

John Heckencamp: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

Heckencamp had flopped a flush draw and needed to hit a spade against his opponents overpair. The turn {7-Clubs} did not change anything but the river {3-Spades} saw Heckencamp make his flush and find a full double through his opponent.
