The Mayor Collects Tax

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

Mike 'The Mayor' Rellinger opened to 1,300 on the button and the player in the big blind defended. A {3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop fanned out and Rellinger's opponent check-called a bet worth 2,000.

The {5-Spades} hit the turn and both players checked to see the {5-Clubs} on the river. Rellinger fired 5,000 and his opponent check-called.

Rellinger tabled the {j-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and his opponent quickly mucked.

Colson Binks the River

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player in middle position opened to 850 and the player to their immediate left flatted. The player on the button also tagged along until Brett Colson three-bet shoved for 8,975 in the big blind. The player in mid position called and the other two folded.

Brett Colson: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Colson was in trouble but a very friendly {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} run out gave him a ton of more outs on the turn which he spiked on the river to score the double up.
