Hand #7 - Jeff Tims

Timothy Miles has the button in Seat 4. Jeff Tims completes the small blind and Gabe Costner checks from the big blind. The flop is {5-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} and both players check. The turn is the {5-Clubs}. Both check again. The river is the {8-Diamonds} and they check a third time.

Tims shows K-7 offsuit, Costner shows Q-2 offsuit, and Tims' king high is good enough to take down the pot.

Fantastic Setup for the Final Table

Final Table Setup
Final Table Setup
Each casino has their own setup for final tables. Some have a room that has a television-quality set. Others have a table with some bleachers placed in a corner of a tournament room Todays final table is setup in a theater.

The final table is up on stage with a typical setup of bleachers for spectators to watch. In addition, there is seating throughout the rest of the theater for both spectators and media. Big-screen televisions as well as widescreen plasma screens are setup along the stage so everyone has a closeup view of each hand.

This is definitely one of the nicer setups for a final table on the circuit trail.

Hand #12 - Gabe Costner

Chuck Kelley has the button in Seat 2. Gabe Costner moves all in and Timothy Miles asks Costner for a count. The total bet is 126,000, which induces a fold from Miles. Costner wins the blinds and antes.
