Brendan Shiller
Brendan Shiller

Brendan Shiller opened from middle position to 700. His bet made it to the button, Brandon Delnano, who three-bet to 2100. Shiller called and took a flop.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Spades}. Shiller checked to Delnano who continued with a bet of 1,500. Shiller check-raised to 4,000. Delnano then three-bet jammed the flop for 35,100 effective and had Shiller covered. Shiller called to create a massive pot at level three.

Cards were exposed and Shiller showed {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} while Shiller showed {9-Spades}{j-Spades} for the combo draw.

The turn brought the magical {8-Spades} to complete the straight flush and give Shiller the rare and unbeatable hand.

Joshua Lien
Joshua Lien

Action picked up on the turn with Dudley Miller betting 10,000 into a pot of about 20,000. Joshua Lien considered his options.

The board read {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{k-Spades} and the front-door flush had just come in.

Lien decided to put the min-check-raise to 20,000 across the line. Miller thought for a bit and frustratingly let go of his cards.

Brian Green
Brian Green

Brian Green opened to 1,500 from early position and got three callers before action came to Joshua Lien in the big blind. He three-bet up to 8,000. Green called and so did the player in the small blind.

The flop showed up {4-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and two players checked to Green, the in-position players. He siezed control on the betting with a bet of 10,000. Lien decided to call.

The turn came the {3-Hearts} and now both players checked.

The river fell the {7-Diamonds} and Lien checked for a third time. Green decided to now go all in for a total of 29,000.

After some thought, Lien released his cards and Green raked the pot.

Burr Freezes Two Players at Once

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Ryan Burr
Ryan Burr

Ryan Burr opened from middle position and found two callers preflop, Kevin Garosshen in late position and Chase Griesbach from the button. The pot held about 4,000.

The flop showed up with the {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Action now checked to Garosshen who bet about half pot. When action came to Griesbach on the button, he elected to go all in for 21,800. Burr, the original raiser, called the all in.

Garosshen wasn't done with the hand, though. He also pushed all his chips across the line, totaling, 57,700.

Back on Burr, who deliberated for about one minute before also making the call. Cards were revealed for the massive pot.

"Nuts with a redraw," said Garosshen as he flipped {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

"I guess I need a five or a six," said Griesbach, who turned over {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

Burr revealed his {q-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the flush draw and he had both other players covered.

"Hold!" pleaded Garosshen.

The {10-Hearts} on the turn must not have heard him. The {3-Spades} river completed the board and Burr catapulted himself into an early chip leader.
