Ferguson Triples With Aces

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player in early position opened the action with a raise to 2,500 and was called by the cutoff. Jeremy Ferguson three-bet shoved for 11,000 in the big blind and received calls from both players behind, who then checked all the way through a board of {3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Clubs}.

"I've got it, gentlemen," said Ferguson, tabling {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} for the nut flush.

The early-position showed {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and the cutoff tabled {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, both of which Ferguson topped to earn him the triple.

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Aaron Johnson
Aaron Johnson

Aaron Johnson was all in for his last 13,000 in early position, receiving action from Mitchell Bank, who was on the button.

Aaron Johnson: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Mitchell Bank: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Johnson was in a coin-flip situation for his tournament life and was unable to find help on the runout {7-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts}, leaving his hand second best to result in his chips being sent across the table to Bank, who is now nearing in on a 50K stack.

Hennig Delivers a Dusting

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Matt Hennig
Matt Hennig

Matt Hennig was just involved in a hand in which all of the chips went into the middle on a flop of {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Hennig was in middle position and had his opponent, who was under the gun, at risk.

All-In Player: {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Matt Hennig: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

Hennig's opponent had flopped a flush but his nut flush draw was still plenty alive. The turn {j-Diamonds} flipped the tables, leaving his opponent with just one out to a gutshot straight flush to stay alive. The one outer did not come as the river {8-Hearts} fell and Hennig collected the knockout with his pocket aces.

Stefan Needs No Showdown

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Sarah Stefan
Sarah Stefan

There was 5,000 in the center with four-way action on a flop of {j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and Sarah Stefan was first to act in the small blind. She checked, as did the big blind and under-the-gun player, before the final player bet 4,500 from early position. Only Stefan called.

Action was then heads up to the turn {8-Spades}, where Stefan check-called another 5,000. The river fell {10-Spades} and Stefan placed a bet of 18,000 softly onto the felt in front of her. Her opponent went into the tank for nearly a full minute and then let his hand go, earning Stefan the pot.

Banhidy Doubles

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

There was about 12,000 in the middle on a flop of {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} with three players in the hand. Action checked to Penelope Banhidy who went all in for 25,800. The hijack folded and the big blind made the call.

Big Blind: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Penelope Banhidy: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Banhidy needed to improve and was able to find help on the {q-Spades} turn. The river {9-Clubs} came clean for Banhidy and she found the double.
