Heffernan Gets a Double

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Kellyann Heffernan
Kellyann Heffernan

With around 15,000 in the pot and a flop of {4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Full Tilt Poker quailifer Kellyann Heffernan shoved all in from the big blind for her last 25,600. Yucel Eminoglu decided to look her up from middle position and immediately regretted his decision.

Eminoglu: {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Heffernan: {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

Both players had flopped a flush draw, but Eminoglu's was second best. The {Q-Clubs} turn paired Heffernan to secure her the hand, and after the meaningless {5-Spades} (which improved her to a wheel) was run out on the river, she was pushed the pot.

Jamie Burland Flops a Set and Busts

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Jamie Burland
Jamie Burland

Jamie Burland and Mark Spelman got it all-in on a flop of {10-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Burland had {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for middle set but unfortunately for him Spelman had {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for top set. The last two cards {4-Hearts}{8-Spades} were no help to Burland and he left the table holding a half-eaten plate of food.

Team PokerStars Pro Bluffed by Gold

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Jake Cody
Jake Cody

Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody just got bluffed big time in a massive hand.

It began when Cody opened for 5,000 and then called when Alan Gold, who began the day as chip leader, three-bet to 13,500. Gold then bet 16,500 on the {5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop, Cody called and the dealer burned and turned the {K-Diamonds}. Gold kept the pressure on with a bet of 27,000, Cody called and the {8-Spades} completed the board on the river.

This time Gold, who had the bigger stack, moved all in to put Cody to the test. The Triple Crown winner thought for over three minutes before shaking his head and tossing his cards to the muck.

"You want to see it?" Gold asked. Cody indicated that he did. Gold then tabled the {q-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a bluff. Cody's face said it all and he got out of his seat for a few moments before taking to Twitter.
