Su Gets Paid

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Jason Su's early success hasn't stopped, as he just got paid off for 20,000 on the river on a board of {6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Su turned over {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for a straight, and he's well over 100,000 now.

Wagner Picks Off Reichard's All-In Triple Barrel

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Kris Wagner opened for 1,200 on the button and called a three-bet from small blind Josh Reichard to 3,200. Wagner called bets of 3,000 on the flop and 6,000 on the turn as the board ran out {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Spades}, but it was on the river that Reichard brought out the big guns with an all-in shove worth about 30,000.

"Wow," Wagner said, staring his opponent up and down for a clue.

After a couple of minutes, he elected to call off most of his stack.

"Good call," Reichard said, tabling {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Wagner showed {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for top pair, and Reichard congratulated him again on the call.

Wagner got fourth place for about $30,000 last time the Mid-States Poker Tour was here.

Tate Doubles Through Jones

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

John Tate doubled up with his last few thousand when his {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} held up against the {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} of Noomis Jones all in preflop. The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and Tate dodged the extra outs Jones picked up with his straight draw.

Brown Fades the Hearts

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player in middle position bet 1,600 on a {2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} flop and was called by Rob Brown on the button. In the big blind, a third player shipped in for 8,725, getting a fold from the bettor. Brown made the call after a minute or so.

Brown: {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Big blind: {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

A {2-Clubs} on the turn and an {8-Spades} on the river meant Brown's pair stayed best.

Givens Busts to Reichard in Crazy Pot

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Josh Reichard
Josh Reichard

We found Josh Reichard with 3,150 in front of him in the small blind, facing two all-in wagers. One was from Will Givens, who has about 20,000 in middle position, while the player on the button was all in for about 12,000. Reichard made the call.

Reichard: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Givens: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Button: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

"Nice call, I thought you had ace-queen," Givens said to Reichard.

The most live cards were held by the player on the button though, and he was the one to improve on the {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop. A {6-Hearts} turn was a blank, and a {q-Diamonds} river sealed it for the player on the button.

Apparently, the action had begun with a player who opened to 650 in early position and was called by Givens. The player on the button then put out 1,050, trying to get change, but the bet was ruled a raise. Reichard cold four-bet to the 3,150 we saw, folding out the opener, and Givens jammed it in. The player on the button, not noticing the all in, announced a call, and was forced to call off his stack.

"I couldn't have played that any worse at any time," he said after the hand.

Reichard collected a small side pot from Givens, while the player on the button tripled.
