Luong Doubles Through Bohn

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

According to Will Givens, Phillip Luong opened in the cutoff and saw Blake Bohn three-bet the button. Luong reraised, and the two got it in preflop with Luong holding {k-}{k-} against Bohn's {3-}{3-}. Luong held for the double.

"Bad read," Bohn simply said via Twitter.

Boudreau With the KO

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Kevin "Phwap" Boudreau just knocked out a player on a board of {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Spades}{j-Spades}{q-Clubs} with {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. The chips were already being shipped to him when we got to the table, so his opponent's hand was already in the muck.

Boudreau, Kirby Score Eliminations

A player at Kevin Boudreau's table opened for a raise in early position and then called off for about 70,000 when Boudreau put him all in with {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} in the big blind. The opener had {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}, and things looked rosy when a {5-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} flopped. Runner-runner {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a straight gave Boudreau the pot, though.

"Kid's on fire," someone said, as Boudreau smiled at the run out.

At the neighboring table, three players got all in after a {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop, with Matt Kirby easily covering both opponents.

Kirby: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Will Givens: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Third player: {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

When the board paired on the {j-Diamonds} turn, Kirby took a big lead, leaving the player who flopped the straight dead. An {a-Spades} river meant Kirby scored two knockouts with his full house.

Mike Ross got all in from the button with {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, but unfortunately for him, the big blind woke up with {a-}{k-}. Ross saw a nice flop when {6-Clubs}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts} hit the board, and the {10-Clubs} turn was even nicer as it gave him a straight.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.

Beauprez Doubles Through Luong; Bohn Coolered

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
John Beauprez
John Beauprez

On a board of {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}, John Beauprez got all in from the small blind against big blind Phillip Luong for about 160,000.

Luong: {9-Spades}{3-Spades}
Beauprez: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Beauprez had top two, but Luong had some outs with a flush draw and a gutter. He improved on the {3-Clubs} river, but it was only to two pair, not enough to overtake Beauprez.

A few hands later at the same table, Blake Bohn ran {k-}{k-} into {a-}{a-} and is down to about 123,000.

Frei Doubles

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Aaron Frei just jammed over a late-position open with {7-Clubs}{7-Spades} and was snapped off by {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Frei binked a seven on the flop to survive and double.
