Lagana Saved By the River

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante
Mike Lagana
Mike Lagana

A player jammed for 6,100 from middle position, and Mike Lagana three-bet shoved for 19,300 from the hijack. The button cold-called, and the blinds folded.

Middle Position: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Mike Lagana: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Button: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The {8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{5-Spades} flop gave the button a commanding lead, and the {3-Clubs} changed nothing. The {10-Diamonds} river brought a round of gasps from the table, and prompted one of Lagana's tablemates to remark, "I need a beer after that one!" Lagana took out his phone and snapped a quick photo of his good fortune, then raked in the pot.

Schuh Gets it Through

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

Five players, including Kerry Hildebrand and Craig Schuh, built up a pot of 8,000 before a {3-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop could fall. Action checked to a player in early position, who bet 6,000. Schuh was the only caller in the hijack.

The early-position player checked the {a-Spades} turn, and Schuh fired 6,000. That did the trick as Schuh's opponent folded.

The Saga of the "Card on the Floor"

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Taylor Howard
Taylor Howard

"Floor, Table 8!"

A crowd gathered over at Table 8, and two players had cards on their backs from a preflop all-in confrontation. One was big stack Taylor Howard, who held {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}.

The other was a player who, at first glance, held just the {a-Clubs} for his remaining 12,000 chips.

When the player with the lone ace went all in, he apparently flung his cards on the felt, and one took an errant bounce off the table, resulting in the floor being called over to retrieve the missing card; the {j-Hearts}.

With the hands restored, the board came a drama-free {4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs} to give Howard the pot and the knockout.

Albert Finds a Flush

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Chris Albert
Chris Albert

Three players saw a {2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop hit the felt, and action checked to a player in middle position, who bet 2,500. The small blind folded, while Chris Albert called in the big blind.

Albert checked the {k-Clubs} turn to his opponent, who bet 4,500. Albert check-raised to 13,000, and Albert's opponent went deep into the tank. After a few minutes of counting down his remaining 18,500, the middle-position player settled on a fold.

Albert elected to reveal his {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a flush before raking in the pot.

Klein Finds the Two-Outer

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Four players invested 1,600 to see a {10-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, and Eric Klein ripped his last 17,400 in from the small blind. Only the player under the gun made the call, and the cards were tabled.

Eric Klein: {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Opponent: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

Klein's aces-up were in a world of hurt, and the {10-Hearts} turn left him searching for an ace. Sure enough, the {a-Spades} peeled off on the river, and the table reacted in unison with a chorus of gasps as Klein could just shake his head and laugh, before raking in the pot.
