Heine Pays Off Ketterling

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Keith Heine bet 5,000 on a {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Spades} board from the button and Tony Ketterling called in the big blind. On the {3-Hearts} river, Ketterling came alive with 12,000.

"Do you always get there?" Heine asked.

After a minute or two, he called. Ketterling showed {k-}{3-}, likely not the way Heine expected him to get there.

Anderson Doubles One Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Steve Anderson opened to 3,500 in the small blind and saw his opponent call in the big. The flop brought {5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, and Anderson bet 3,000. His opponent shipped immediately for 20,600, and Anderson called after about a minute with {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. He was outflopped by the {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} though, and no seven appeared on the last two streets.

Johnson Doubles

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We found Ryan Johnson all in for approximately 25,000 on a {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop from the small blind. His opponent had bet 2,000 from middle position, and Johnson check-shipped. After a two-minute tank, the bettor called.

Johnson: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Opponent: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Johnson had some extra cards to fade after the {3-Diamonds} turn, but the {7-Clubs} river bricked off.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.

John Utley shoved his last 5,100 in middle position and got a call from Jim Rustler, whose {k-Spades}{10-Spades} dominated Utley's {10-}{9-}. The board ran out clean for Rustler and Utley wished everyone good luck.

Turner, Dawson Sinking

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Josh Turner bet 3,500 from the small blind on a {6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Hearts} board, and his opponent under the gun called. Turner bet 7,300 on the {2-Spades}, and his opponent again called. Turner showed {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for ace-high, and his opponent's {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} was a better ace-high.

At another table, Charlie Dawson called a bet of 12,000 on a {j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, and his opponent showed {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a straight.
