Caruso Doubles Through Siddiqui

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Faisal Siddiqui bet 3,500 from middle position on a board of {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, and Christopher Caruso shoved all in for 10,625. Siddiqui muttered to himself as he thought for a couple of minutes before splashing in a call.

"Paying you off, I think," he said as he flipped {a-}{q-} for top two.

He was right, as Caruso had turned a flush with {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

Siddiqui called for an ace or queen, but a {9-Spades} hit the river.

Ho Busts Another

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Huan Ho
Huan Ho

With the board reading {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, Huan Ho was thinking over a 4,500 bet from an opponent on the button.

"What can I beat?" Ho said to himself softly.

After about a minute, he dropped in 4,500 and said he was all in, and his opponent flipped his last chip, a T5,000, in.

"Drawing," Ho declared, showing {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for two pair and a straight flush draw. His opponent had only {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}, and Ho was actually way ahead. The river bricked off and Ho continues to run hot.

Ho Puts a Beat on Friedman

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Adam Friedman
Adam Friedman

Huan Ho opened for 650 in the hijack, and Adam Friedman three-bet to 1,400 on his left. Ho came back with 4,500, and Friedman splashed in an exaggerated call. Ho bet 7,000 on the {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop, and Friedman called. Ho continued his aggression with 17,000 on the {3-Diamonds} turn, and Friedman counted out his stack and thought for a couple of minutes before moving in for about 10,000 more. Ho asked for a count of the raise.

"That's no pair," Friedman said with a smile.

He was right, but Ho called anyway with the {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, and his draw was live as Friedman had {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. The river brought a {6-Diamonds}, giving Ho a flush.

"I knew I had the best hand," Friedman said before heading to the registration desk to reenter.
