Seth Gutz Bubbles RunGood Poker Series Horseshoe Council Bluffs

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Seth Gutz (standing) and Joseph Sutliff
Seth Gutz (standing) and Joseph Sutliff

A pot of 100,000 had already built up between Seth Gutz and Joseph Sutliff, with a {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs} board on the felt. Gutz checked, and Sutliff simply moved in with a covering stack. Gutz snapped off for his last 210,000.

Seth Gutz: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Joseph Sutliff: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

The case ace brought all the action, as Gutz turned top set while Sutliff, who turned aces-up, was still plenty live with a flush draw. The {j-Hearts} river gave Sutliff a flush and left a stunned Gutz standing at his chair. A few moments later, with another elimination at an outer table, it was confirmed that the remaining 90 players were in the money, and Gutz was left with a brutal beat as the bubble.

Bane Sends a Huge Chunk to Kauffman

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Kauffman's Set Nets a Double
Kauffman's Set Nets a Double

Freeman Kauffman had his last 119,000 chips in from the big blind on a {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, and was at risk against Lorraine Bane on the button.

Freeman Kauffman: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Lorraine Bane: {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}

"Oh, you have a set!" Bane said once the hands were turned.

Bane couldn't hit a jack on the {9-Spades} turn or {7-Diamonds} river, but she took the beat in stride as she paid off her debt to Kauffman, telling him, "They couldn't have gone to a nicer guy!"

Alex Wheeler checked a {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop from the small blind, as did the player in the big blind. Grant Hinkle bet 25,000 into a pot of 40,000 from middle position, and only Wheeler called.

Both players checked the {q-Diamonds} turn, and the {5-Clubs} fell on the river. Wheeler bet 60,000, and Hinkle folded.

Fetherkile Running Absolutely Pure

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ryan Fetherkile
Ryan Fetherkile

Ryan Fetherkile limped in from the cutoff, and the small blind jammed for 42,000. Tim Garles folded what he later claimed was {k-}{j-} in the big blind, and Fetherkile shrugged and said, "I'll try it," before calling.

Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Ryan Fetherkile: {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts} was action-packed, as Fetherkile flopped the nut straight, while his opponent held top set. The board failed to pair on the {9-Spades} turn and {4-Hearts} river, and Garles said Fetherkile was "Running so pure right now!" while Fetherkile could simply smile and stack up the pot.

Massive Cooler Boosts Koenemann, Dents Barnard

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Barnard
Joe Barnard

Kevin Berthelsen raised to 10,000 from the hijack, and Bhaskar Setti three-bet to 30,000 from the button. Ron Koenemann four-bet shoved for 60,000 in the small blind, and Joe Barnard five-bet shoved for 104,000 in the big blind, chasing out Berthelsen and Setti.

Ron Koenemann: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Joe Barnard: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

"Hold one time!" Koenemann said before the {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Spades} flop fell. Barnard flopped a flush draw and turned a straight draw with the {q-Hearts}, but the {q-Clubs} river was a brick, shipping the big double to Koenemann.

Vang Catches Smith Speeding

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Steve Vang
Steve Vang

Steve Vang raised to 8,000 from the button, and was called by James Shearer in the small blind. Kip Smith three-bet to 22,000, and Vang four-bet shoved for 80,000. Shearer folded, and Smith went into the tank.

"I'm either racin' or I'm crushed," Smith said. "I don't like when I say that to myself!"

A few moments later, Smith folded, and told Vang, "Speed limit," to which Vang gave a quick nod.

"Timmy's Got Some Chips!"

Tim Garles
Tim Garles

With a {j-Spades}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop on the felt, Mark Martin led out for 12,000 from the small blind, and Tim Rystrom called in the hijack. Tim Garles jammed for 88,500 on the button, Martin called off his last 30,000, and Rystrom called as well.

Mark Martin: {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Tim Garles: {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Tim Rystrom: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Garles didn't have to wait to lock the hand up, as the {a-Clubs} fell on the turn to give him the win. The {k-Clubs} completed the board on the river, and Garles stood up and said, "Timmy's got some chiiiiiips!" in celebration. Martin was eliminated, while Rystrom was left with just 30,000 and busted a short time later.

Mark Fink: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Ryan Meek: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Fink bricked the {4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop, but drilled the {a-Hearts} turn to take the lead, and secured the double after the {5-Clubs} fell on the river.
