Howie Catches Cusinato in the Act

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

With about 1,300 in the pot, on a board reading {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}, Angelo Cusinato checked from the hijack. Mark Howie was in the cutoff and bet 800. Cusinato thought for a moment and eventually called.

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {10-Spades} on the river. Cusinato reached into his stack and bet a hefty 2,500. Howie had a shocked look on his face, and eventually pieced things together before deciding to call. He was right, as Cusinato tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for ace-high. Howie showed {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} and raked in the pot.

Jeffrey Cormier

Adam Hussen raised to 500 from middle position and Jeff Cormier quickly three-bet to 1,200 from the hijack. Hussen called.

The flop came {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Hussen immediately led out for 1,700. Cormier gave him a puzzled look but still called.

The turn was the {6-Hearts} and both players checked to the {6-Clubs} on the river. Hussen reached into his stack and put out a bet worth 3,500.

Cormier asked, "Do you have a queen?" as he cut chips out for a potential call. After about a minute he tossed the chips in the middle.

"Good call" said Hussen as he flung his cards in the middle, flashing {k-Spades}{j-Clubs} for king-high. Cormier tabled {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and raked in the pot.

Setna Finds a Lucky River

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

On a board reading {k-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, with about 5,000 in the pot, Peter Chien checked from the small blind. Jimmy Setna was in the big blind and bet 1,700 and Chien called.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and Chien checked again. Setna bet 3,100 this time and Chien called again. The river was the {a-Clubs} and Chien checked for a third time. Setna counted his stack out and eventually checked back. Chien tabled {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} but it was no good against Setna's {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.
