Hovden Rivers a Set

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

A player on the button shoved all in for 6,150 after an early position raise and two calls. After the blinds folded, the three players with money already in the pot all called. Everyone checked to the river, when the board read {4-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. Two more checks ensued, then Daryl Hovden bet 16,000. The two active players quickly folded, and Hovden showed {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for a rivered set. The button tabled {a-}{q-} for ace-high before exiting the table.

Mario Hudson forced Rob Wazwaz to fold.
Mario Hudson forced Rob Wazwaz to fold.

Rob Wazwaz bet 7,000 out of the big blind after a {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop, and Mario Hudson in middle position was the only caller. The {8-Spades} hit the turn, and Wazwaz checked. Hudson bet 10,000, and Wazwaz went deep into the tank, muttering something we couldn't hear every now and then as he thought for at least three minutes. Finally, a player called the clock. Wazwaz continued tanking before finally letting his hand go at the end of the countdown.

Hudson said he had a set, while Wazwaz claimed to have held top pair.

Gutfreund's Plan Comes Together

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
David Gutfreund won a big pot with aces.
David Gutfreund won a big pot with aces.

A player opened for 1,500 under the gun, and David Gutfreund called from early position. A player in late position made it 5,000, and the initial raiser called. Gutfreund shoved all in for about 40,000, and the three-bettor made the call. The player under the gun thought for a bit before deciding to fold

Gutfreund: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Late position: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The {10-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop brought little for the player in late position, but a {9-Spades} turn gave him a straight draw. No paint arrived though, as a {3-Clubs} hit the board.

"I love it when a plan comes together," Gutfreund said, leaning back as the dealer pushed him the pot.
