Good Call and Bardah Busts One

Level 8 : 300/600, 100 ante

On the {J-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, Ronnie Bardah was faced with an all-in bet of 8,300 from an opponent. After a little bit of thought, Bardah made the call holding the {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. His opponent had the {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for a weaker pair and Bardah was in front.

Andy Seth
Andy Seth

From under the gun, Sterling Savill opened with a raise to 1,400. Action folded to Andy Seth on the button, and he reraised to 3,700. After the blinds folded, Savill reraised and made it 6,600 to go with a four-bet. Seth moved all in for approximately 23,000, and Savill quickly called.

Savill tabled the powerful {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and he had Seth's {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} on the ropes. The flop, turn, and river ran out {K-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{J-Clubs} to eliminate Seth and move Savill to nearly 80,000 in chips.

Dee Doubles

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

On the {Q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Robert Emmert and Catherine Dee checked, then the next player bet 3,500. Dave Dee, Catherine's husband, was also in the hand, and he raised all in for 14,300. Emmert and Catherine folded, before the original bettor went into the tank.

"Why wouldn't you raise on the button if you had a good hand?" asked the player to the all-in Dee. Then, he called.

Dee tabled the {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a set of sixes, and his opponent showed the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for top pair. The turn was the {a-Spades} and the river was the {9-Clubs}. Dee's hand held up, and he doubled to over 30,000 in chips.

"He didn't raise because he hand wasn't that good yet,' offered Catherine to her husband's opponent.
