Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ronnie Day raised to 6,000 in the cutoff, and was called by Dustin Priestly in the small blind and Tyler Smith in the big blind.
The flop of J♠5♥4♠ checked through to the J♦ turn, where it checked to Smith, who bet 12,000. Only Priestly called.
On the 6♠ river, Priestly checked and Smith moved all in to put Priestly at risk, who had about 15,000 back. Priestly made the call only to see the bad news that his 9♠9♣ was no good against Smith's A♠J♣.

In the 961st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are back for a special episode to discuss the recent Grand Jury verdict regarding The Lodge Card Club in Round Rock, Texas. Spoiler Alert: It was good news for Doug Polk and company as potential charges were dismissed, and seized funds and equipment will be returned. Not only that, the cardroom has plans to reopen as soon as possible.
It was the best case outcome considering the situation, and the poker world, including co-owners Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme, celebrated en masse. There are still a lot of lingering questions as to what may come next, but the crew dives into it all in this episode.
Find out all about those stories and more in this week's episode of the PokerNews Podcast! Oh, and be sure to check out the audio version of the PokerNews Podcast that is available on all major podcasting platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and SoundCloud.

After two limps, Dan Hummer completed in the small blind, and Donald Wright made it 8,000 to go in the big blind. The two limpers folded and Hummer moved all in to put Wright at risk, who had 25,000 behind. Wright thought for a moment before making the call.
Donald Wright: K♦J♦ 
Dan Hummer: A♣Q♦
Wright picked up a flush draw on the 4♦4♣7♦ flop, and paired his king on the K♣ turn to pull ahead.
The 10♥ completed the board, and the pot was pushed Wright's way.

Shane Ball raised to 3,000 in the cutoff and the player in the big blind defended, bringing out a flop of 10♦8♠3♦.
The big blind checked, Ball continued with a bet of 6,000, and the big blind raised to 25,000. Ball then moved all in for just 1,000 more and the big blind called.
Shane Ball: A♦A♥
Big blind: K♥10♥
Ball locked up the win on the A♠ turn, improving to a set of aces, and the meaningless 4♥ rolled off on the river.
