Roberson Bricks Straight Draw but Runner-Runner Trips Works Too

Tyler Boyer
Tyler Boyer
Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action was picked up on the flop with Jeff Roberson all in for 25,000, and a player in the cutoff putting him at risk. There was roughly already 45,000 in the pot, and the board showing K♦7♠6♦.

Jeff Roberson: 8♣5♣ All in
Cutoff: A♦K♠

Roberson was behind the pair of kings of his opponent, but did have an open-ended straight draw to stay in the tournament. But when the board ran out 8♦ on the turn, and 8♥ on the river, he made trip eights instead, which was also good to take the pot and double up.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Chris George raised to 6,000 from the hijack, and Andrew Bakota three-bet to 14,000 from the cutoff. It folded back to George who put in a four-bet to 40,000, which Bakota called to see a flop.

Both players checked the 3♦2♥8♥ flop, which brought the 4♠ on the turn. George then moved all in for his stack of 98,500, and after Bakota confirmed the count, he elected muck his hand and give the pot to George.

As George scooped the pot, he showed Dakota A♠K♠ for just ace high.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was picked up in a multi-way pot with 19,000 in the pot, and the board showing 5♦9♠3♦.

After the flop the small blind and big blind checked to Glen 'The Cannon' Gruner on the button, who bet out 15,000. The player in the small blind then raised to 50,000. The big blind folded, and Gruner moved all in for his stack of 53,000, which the small blind quickly called.

Glen Gruner: A♦A♣ All in
Small Blind: K♠K♥

It was the ultimate cooler as the small blind ran into the aces of Gruner. The board ran out 5♥ on the turn, and 10♠ on the river, and the aces of Gruner were still best, giving the 'Cannon' a double up.
