Hodge Forces Pupillo Out

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Mark Hodge
Mark Hodge

Mark Hodge bet 2,000 from the hijack on a {6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop, and Nick Pupillo check-raised to 4,200 from the small blind. Hodge called after some thought, and both checked the {k-Hearts}. Pupillo bet small with 3,200 on the {5-Spades} river, and Hodge responded by shoving all in. Pupillo asked for the initial bets to be pulled in, and Hodge had 7,400 remaining. After a couple of minutes of thought, the Mid-States Poker Tour team pro mucked.

De Silva Calls it Off

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Andy Rogowski bet 8,400 from the big blind against Sam De Silva on fourth street with the board reading {7-Spades}{a-Spades}{8-Spades}{k-Hearts}. De Silva called, and Rogowski bet 10,000 on the {q-Clubs} river. De Silva pondered for a couple of minutes then pushed all in for just a few thousand more. Rogowski quickly called with {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}, and De Silva showed {a-}{10-}, having been turned dead.

Wiora Wants Another

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

A player opened to 1,400 in middle position, and the recently-seated Ben Wiora reraised to 3,700 in the cutoff. The middle player called then led out at Wiora for 2,000 on the {6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{k-Spades} flop. Wiora tossed in 4,000, and his opponent quickly folded.

Wiora took down Mid-States Poker Tour Ho-Chunk for more than $114,000 in February and is looking for another big cash, here in Iowa.

Seitz Runs into the Nuts

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Jason Seitz bet 5,000 on a board of {q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} in early position and his opponent in middle position called. Seitz bet another 5,000 on the {8-Diamonds} river, and his opponent shoved for about double that. Seitz called, though he didn't seem thrilled about it, and his opponent showed {j-Spades}{10-Spades} for the nut straight.

We found three players all in on a board of {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, with Jim Boone covering both of his opponents and having turned the nut flush with {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. One player turned a straight with {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, but "Captain" David Kimbrell had everyone drawing dead with {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, having binked a straight flush. The meaningless river was a {9-Clubs}, and Kimbrell knocked out the short-stacked player, while Boone had to ship him a little over 38,000.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.
