Laplante Takes a Beat

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Three players saw a {9-Spades}{q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop and everyone checked to the {k-Hearts} turn. An early player checked, Ryan Laplante bet 7,800 into about 10,000 on his left, and a third player folded on the button. Laplante's other opponent was stickier and they saw a {4-Hearts} river.

Both players checked and the first player showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for a flush. Laplante flashed {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for the flopped nuts.

Nasreddine bet 3,500 and Orfanos, with only about 8,500 left, shook his head and opted to save his remaining ammo.

Daniel Jones

Three players saw a {6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop. Aaron Massey bet 1,500 fro middle position and both small blind Bryant Miller and big blind Daniel Jones called. On the {10-Spades} turn, Miller checked but Jones shoved all in for 12,600. Massey tanked for over a minute then folded. Miller thought a bit too but he called.

Miller: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Jones: {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}

Jones had turned the straight, and his hand held on the {6-Diamonds} river. Massey said he folded {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}.

Le Busts One

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

With about 6,000 in the middle, a player in the blinds checked over to Trung Le in middle position on {6-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. He bet 6,000 and a player on the button jammed for just 200 more. The third player mucked and Le called, tabling {5-Spades}{4-Spades}. He had few cards to fade as his opponent turned over {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, and the {3-Clubs} river did nothing for the all-in player.

Nasreddine Coolers One

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

A pot of around 60,000 was being pushed to Rania Nasreddine when we arrived at the table. She was on the button against a hijack opponent, and a player relayed the action. He said the hijack opened, Nasreddine three-bet on the button, the other player four-bet, and she five-bet shipped.

Nasreddine had the {a-}{a-} and her unfortunate opponent held {k-}{k-} and was unable to improve.
