Herrington's AA Gets Paid

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We found Beverly Herrington betting about 6,000 on a {2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and being called by one opponent. When a {3-Spades} peeled off on the turn, Herrington shoved all in and was called by her covered opponent.

Herrington: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-}{q-}

Herrington dodged the two-outer when the river came a {2-Hearts}, and she sent her opponent to the exits.

Jore Doubles on River

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player in middle position opened for 4,000, and Matt Jore put his last 18,900 in. Action folded to the big blind, who moved all in over the top, forcing the original raiser to fold.

Jore: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Big blind: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Jore was way behind, and a flop of {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} did him no favors. The {j-Diamonds} turn left him with three outs, but the {a-Hearts} was just the ticket on the river.

"I knew it," the big blind said quietly.

Schneider Gets Called With a Cinch

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Mike "Schneids" Schneider had his opponent drawing dead.
Mike "Schneids" Schneider had his opponent drawing dead.

We found Mike Schneider on the button and all in for 20,000 on a board of {9-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. His opponent was thinking, and he pushed out calling chips after about another minute of thought.

Schneider quickly flipped {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a broadway straight, and his opponent helplessly and angrily tossed {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} down for a dead pair. After the {9-Hearts} completed the board and the dealer swept the chips to "Schneids," his opponent commented that he put Schneider on kings.

Sami Saad El-Dein made a bad read.
Sami Saad El-Dein made a bad read.

We found Sami Saad El-Dein with a bet of 4,000 in front of him on a board of {5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. One player had called, while Rodger Johnson had shoved all in for 20,800 in the big blind. Saad El-Dein decided to call after some thought, and the third player folded.

Saad El-Dein: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Johnson: {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

"Is that a set of fives?" Saad El-Dein asked, squinting across the table. "Wow."

He chuckled about his misread as he bricked the {2-Spades} river.

Ken Payne, who finished in fifth place for $18,787 at Mid-States Poker Tour Meskwaki earlier this month, just busted out when his {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} was outrun by the {a-}{j-} of an opponent who made aces full.

Lance Harris couldn't get his opponent to fold.

Ken Pates checked from early position to Lance Harris, who bet 3,700 on an {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop. Pates made the call, and he check-called another 8,100 on the {2-Diamonds} turn. A {4-Clubs} hit the river, and Pates checked a final time. Harris loaded and fired again, this time 13,500. Pates thought for a bit before calling, and Harris showed {7-Spades}{6-Spades} for seven-high. Pates has {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds} for top pair.
