Rahn Turns Scoggin Dead

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Greg Rahn pushed all in from an early position for his last 8,600 or so, and Grayson Scoggin called off for less in the small blind.

Rahn: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Scoggin: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

"Oh, that's all you've got?!" Rahn asked sarcastically.

Scoggin had a lot less (equity, at least) after the {5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades} flopped, giving Rahn an open-ender to go with his pair. The {4-Spades} turn left Scoggin drawing to a chop, and he didn't get there on the {j-Clubs} river.

Doering Doesn't "Have a Damn Thing"

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

A player raised to 2,000 in middle position and got one caller before the button three-bet to 5,600. The raiser folded, and Keith Doering made the call.

Both players checked the {j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop, and Doering check-called 6,700 on the {4-Diamonds} turn. A {k-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Doering eyed his opponent's stack, which had about 9,000.

"I'm all in," Doering announced, and his opponent quickly folded.

"I didn't have a damn thing," Doering said tossing {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} into the middle for a missed straight draw.

Kuznia Coolers One

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Brett Kuznia got all of his chips in the middle on the turn on a board of {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{a-Spades}{j-Clubs}. He rolled over {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} after he was called.

"I have top two and I'm drawing dead," his opponent said with a shake of his head, tossing {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} into the air. Indeed, the river ({3-Diamonds}) did not and could not help him.

John Hayes opened for 1,500 under the gun, and action folded to James Maxey in the big blind. Maxey raised to 3,600, and Hayes moved all in. Maxey called without hesitation.

Maxey: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Hayes: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Maxey held a commanding lead, and it never diminished on the {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{a-Hearts} runout.

Breyfogle Doubles

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Todd Breyfogle just doubled up when he pushed all in before the flop with {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and was called by a player holding {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. After a {9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop, Breyfogle up to exit the area, but a {10-Spades} turn positioned him for an unlikely double. The {8-Diamonds} came on the river, and Breyfogle retook his seat.
