Angelina Rich Folds the River

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Angelina Rich raised to 1,200 preflop, and only the big blind decided to call.

Both players checked the {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop, and the {9-Diamonds} turn.

When the river came the {7-Diamonds}, the big blind lead out for 1,500 and Rich quickly folded her hand.

Rich is now sitting with about 5,000 below starting stack.

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Dave Carey opened to 1,500 in the cutoff, Dan Hamm shoved all-in for 13,200 on the button. A player in the big blind also shoved all-in for 30,000. With action back on Carey, he snap called.

Dave Carey: {a-}{a-}
Dan Hamm: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Big Blind: {a-}{k-}

Carey maintained the lead when the flop came {10-}{4-}{3-}.

But the {q-Clubs} on the turned gave Hamm the lead with his set of queens.

The {8-} river did not improve Carey's hand, and Hamm was awarded a full triple up.
