Hennings Gets Paid with a Boat

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Eric Hennings
Eric Hennings

Eric Hennings opened to 2,400 from the hijack before Austen Yueh three-bet to 7,500 on the button, and Hennings called.

The 998 flop checked through to the Q turn which saw Hennings check again to Yueh who bet 6,000 for exactly one-third. Hennings then check-raised to 20,000, and Yueh tossed in calling chips quickly.

On the K river, Hennings sized up to 30,000, which Yueh called after some deliberation, only to be shown the QQ of Hennings who turned a full house and got value on both turn and river to scoop a big one.

Case Ace Leads to Three-Way Madness

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Arlo Strozewski
Arlo Strozewski

Action picked up three-ways to an A32 flop in a single-raised pot between the under the gun player, Arlo Strozewski from middle position, and the hijack. It checked to the hijack who bet 8,000, and both opponents called.

On the 7 turn, it checked again to the hijack who bet 20,000. The under the gun player called all in for about 15,000 before Strozewski check-jammed his 38,100 stack, and the hijack snapped it off as the covering stack.

Under the Gun: A9 All in
Arlo Strozewski: AQ All in
Hijack: A8

Strozewski got it in good after the case ace fell on the flop. The K river did not pair anyone's kicker, and the queen played for Strozewski to drag a huge one.

Bunch Fades Wood's Outs to Double

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Eric Bunch
Eric Bunch

There was just under 12,000 in the middle in a three-way pot between Peter Wood from the big blind, the cutoff, and Eric Bunch on the button with the flop reading J108.

The cutoff had bet 8,000 before Bunch jammed for 35,500. Wood cold-called with the covering stack before the cutoff tank-folded.

Eric Bunch: J10 All in
Peter Wood: KQ

Bunch was ahead with top two pair against the open-ended straight draw of Wood. The Q turn added even more outs for Wood, but the river was the 6, securing the double for Bunch.

Allen Finds a King to Double

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The cutoff opened to 2,000 before Danny Allen jammed for his final 12,400 from the small blind, and the cutoff snapped it off.

Danny Allen: K5 All in
Cutoff: AQ

Allen was behind but held live cards as the JJ7 flop offered little help. As he tapped the table and walked away, however, the K landed on the turn to give him top pair. He continued to exit the area until the 3 landed on the river, and he was cleared to return as his stack was counted and doubling chips were sent in his direction.
