Harris Forces Devonshire and Yazdi Out

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Mike Harris
Mike Harris

Reza Yazdi opened under the gun for a raise and got calls from both blinds. Mike Harris checked the {6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop, but Bryan Devonshire came out betting with 6,800. Yazdi called, only to see Harris ship it in for about 50,000. Devonshire mucked, as did Yazdi.

"I think you just got two overpairs to fold," Devonshire commented.

If they were indeed overpairs, they were good folds, as Harris showed {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a set.

Runner-Runner for Wilson

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
James Wilson
James Wilson

Two players checked to a middle-position player on a {3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop, and he fired 3,000. Only James Wilson, the small blind, called. Wilson check-called another 4,000 on the {k-Spades} turn, and the {q-Hearts} river put a four-straight on board. Wilson tossed his last 15,300 in.

"Ugh," Wilson's opponent groaned, sitting up in his chair. After a couple of minutes, he splashed in calling chips and was shown {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for Broadway, having been outdrawn on the river after turning a straight with {q-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Wahdan Avoids Another Reload

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

A player in middle position opened and the next player made it 2,625 to go. Nader Wahdan cold-called in the small blind, and the big blind thought hard before mucking. The opener said he had to call, and the three saw {5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop. Wahdan jammed for 10,900, forcing a fold from the opener.

"Call," the reraiser said, showing {a-}{k-}. Wahdan had {3-}{3-}.

"Kind of what I figured," Wahdan's opponent said. His overs failed to improve as Wahdan made a full house on the {2-Clubs}{5-Spades} run out.
