Arcand Wins at Showdown

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante

There was around 5,000 in the middle with heads-up action between Albert Arcand in the big blind and David Jackson, who was in the cutoff. Arcand checked to Jackson, who bet 6,900, and Arcand confirmed the amount before putting out chips to call.

The river came {10-Diamonds} and Arcand checked again. Jackson thought for a few moments and then checked behind to take the hand to showdown.

Arcand tabled {j-Hearts}{10-Spades} for top two pair and Jackson, unable to beat it, sent his cards to the muck.

Peck Takes a Stack

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante
Austin Peck
Austin Peck

A player limped in under the gun and Brandon Lombardo limped in on the player's direct left. The cutoff became the third limper of the hand and then Austin Peck pumped it up to 2,000 in the small blind. Everybody called, taking four-way action to the streets.

The flop dropped {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Peck made a continuation-bet of 2,500. The under-the-gun player called and then Lombardo and the cutoff folded.

With action heads up, the turn came {5-Hearts} and Peck continued with a second barrel of 6,500. The under-the-gun player immediately shoved over the top for around 23,000 and Peck announced a call.

All-In Player: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Austin Peck: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

Peck was ahead and found himself to be the one to improve as the river {a-Spades} completed the runout to give him a set of aces and earn him both the pot and the knockout.

Bohn Nears Six Figures

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante
Blake Bohn
Blake Bohn

Blake Bohn was in middle position and three-bet an early-position open of 600, making it 2,100 to go. The player on the button cold-called and action folded back to the original raiser, who also called.

All three players checked the flop {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and the turn came {4-Diamonds}. The early-position player bet 2,000 and Bohn called. The player on the button then folded, bringing the river {9-Diamonds}. The player in early position reached for chips, mulling between different denominations before ultimately deciding to check.

With action on Bohn, he threw in a bet of 20,000, which was most of his opponent's remaining chips, and quickly got a fold to earn him the pot.

Hal Rotholz opened the action with a raise to 900 in middle position and saw the small blind call. Action went heads up to the flop {8-Hearts}{4-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and the small blind checked over to Rotholz, who made a continuation-bet of 1,000. The small blinc check-raised to 4,000 and Rotholz studied his opponent for about a minute before calling.

The turn came {2-Hearts} and the small blind checked. Rotholz thought for a couple of moments and then put out a bet of 6,000. The small blind then took his time to come to a decision, and that decision was to send his cards to the muck, earning Rotholz the pot with his turn bet.
