Nagle Settles for a Chop

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Tyrone Nagle bet 500 from the big blind on a {3-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, and Mike Ross raised to 1,300. The cutoff called, as did Nagle. The latter came out betting again with 2,300 on the {4-Clubs} turn, and Ross mucked. The cutoff called again, and he called another 3,700 on the {6-Hearts} river. Both players had {7-}{6-} for a flopped straight.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.

Wilson Doubles Through Roberts

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
James Wilson
James Wilson

Shawn Roberts opened to 400 and got one caller before James Wilson three-bet from the button to 1,400. The big blind cold-called, and Roberts and the first caller made it four to the {q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. Action checked to Wilson, who bet 2,400. The big blind folded, and Roberts raised to 9,000. The squeezed player folded, and Wilson called off for 7,975.

Wilson: {q-Spades}{5-Spades}
Roberts: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Wilson's top two had Roberts crushed, and the {3-Spades} and {a-Clubs} changed nothing.
