Bottom Straight Good for Barnett

Jeff Barnett
Jeff Barnett

On a heads-up turn of {j-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{q-Spades}, Jeff Barnett bet 3,000 and was called by Ryan Scott after a brief stint in the tank.

The river came out the {j-Spades} and both players decided to check, and Barnett showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for the bottom end of the straight, but it was good enough as Scott quickly mucked his hand.

Barnett was then pushed the pot to boost his stack to 65,000, one of the largest in the room.

Zhang Busts Beale

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Ed Mroczkowski opened to 1,200 and was called by Steve Zhang, but then Kristopber Beale shoved all in for 15,000.

Ed Mroczkowski thought about it for a second but made the fold, and then the action was back on Zhang, who went into the tank.

After a few moments in thought, he set out calling chips, putting Beale at risk of elimination.

Kristopher Beale: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Steve Zhang: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Beale shook his head in disappointment when he realized what he was up against, and the board of {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts} sent home to the rail as Zhang was pushed the pot.

Griffin Gets There

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante
Matthew Griffin
Matthew Griffin

Matthew Griffin raised to 3,500 from the button and found one call from Christopher Long from under-the-gun.

Long checked dark as the flop came out {5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Griffin checked behind.

The turn was the {q-Clubs} and Long fired out a bet of 5,000, which Griffin called and the two saw the {10-Diamonds} appear on the river.

Both players decided to check and Long flipped over {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a pair of eights but then Griffin rolled over {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for a superior pair of queens to win the pot.

"Ahhhh, shouldn't have pre-checked, why did I do that?" Long was kicking himself as he was left with one-half of the starting stack.

Prince Calls the Bluff

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

After a raise to 1,800 preflop with 3 players in the hand, the flop came out {8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Hunter Wroten and Ryan Scott checked from the blinds and Antwan Prince bet 2,000 from the button. Both of his opponents made the call and the trio went to the turn {j-Spades}.

All three players decided to check their actions and went straight to the river {a-Spades}.

After a check from Wroten, Scott bet out 8,000 and was called by Prince while Wroten folded.

"You're good," Scott admitted, and Prince tabled {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs} to win the pot as Scott mucked.
