Eric Loehr Knocks One Out

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player in middle position checked when the flop came {k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, and Eric Loehr bet 6,000. With action back on the player in middle position, he shoved all in for a total of 11,975. After a moment of thinking about it, Loehr called.

Loehr was ahead when he tabled {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}, but he would need to fade a diamond as his opponent tabled {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a flush draw.

The {k-Hearts} turn and {5-Hearts} river failed to improve his opponent's hand, and Loehr chipped up to 55,000, while his opponent was eliminated.

Terry Ring Eliminated

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Terry Ring
Terry Ring

Alan Carty raised to 600 in early position. A player in middle position, a player on the button, and Terry Ring in the big blind all called.

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Terry shoved his remaining 1,150 chips into the middle, and all three players called.

Carty checked the {a-Hearts} flop, the player in middle position bet 2,200, and only the player on the button called.

All players checked the {k-Diamonds} river.

The player in middle position turned over {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for the ace high flush. The player on the button said, "I had you all the way to the river," as Ring mucked his cards silently and walked away from the table.

Ring will have one more opportunity to reenter, as all players are allowed one reentry per flight.

Matt Kirby Takes a Hit

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

On a board reading {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, the big blind checked, Reg Powell bet 1,100 from under the gun, and both Matt Kirby and the big blind called.

The turn was the {q-Diamonds}. Action checked to Kirby who bet 2,600. Only the big blind called.

The river was the {2-Diamonds}. The big blind bet 1,600, and Kirby called.

The big blind showed {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for the nut flush, and Kirby mucked his hand.

Ken Rosheisen Doubles First Hand Back From Break

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

A friend of Ken Rosheisen swung by to tell the PokerNews blog staff that he had doubled the first hand back from break.

Apparently, his opponent had shoved all in with {q-}{q-} and Rosheisen instantly called with {a-}{a-}.

The board ran out safe, eliminating his opponent and giving Rosheisen a near double.
