Rosheisen's Top Two Good

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Ken Rosheisen got his last 9,500 or so in on a {2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} flop with {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}, top two pair. His opponent needed a king as he had {a-}{k-}, but none showed up on the {5-Diamonds} turn or {10-Spades} river.

Almost hidden in the corner of the room, Jake Balsiger occupies Seat 8 at Table 2. Balsiger gained poker fame with a deep run in the 2012 Main Event, where he ultimately finished third behind Greg Merson and Jesse Sylvia. Balsiger scored some scattered four and five-figure cashes since that $3.8 million score before choosing another one of the world's biggest tournaments to make his presence felt again: the 2014 Aussie Millions. There, he once again finished third, this time for about $568,000.

He'll try to add a Mid-States Poker Tour win to his successes, here at Canterbury.

Abboud Flats a Boat

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Loki Abboud bet 2,500 from the cutoff on a {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} board, and his opponent in early position check-raised to 5,100. Abboud called, and a {2-Hearts} completed the board. The first player slowed down with a check, and Abboud bet 5,000. His opponent called after some thought, and Abboud showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for a full house.

Quads for Criego

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Bill Criego bet 2,650 on the end after the board came {7-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. His opponent called, tossing in {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}.

"Flush," the dealer said, turning to Criego as he threw in {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}. "Quads."

Quads indeed, and a nice start for Criego.
