The Gladiator Strikes

Philip Sparta related us another hand. He had raised three times in a row. The first two times, he wasn't called. This time, his opponent flat calls and the flop is 4-4-5. Both players check. The turn is a ten and he checks. His opponent makes it 3,000. Sparta reraises to 8,000 and the opponent just calls. The river is a jack and Sparta makes it 15,000 and the opponent instantly calls. Sparta turns over 10-10 for the full house and his opponent mucks, bringing Sparta up to 91,000 and a decisive chip lead in this event.

Rita Davison Likes Big Slick

Rita Davison raises to 1,800 with 10,350 behind and Michael Skomac calls. Keven Stammen calls and Wilbur Futhey reraises to 17,200. Davison calls. Skomac folds. Stammen thinks for awhile and folds {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} face-up. Futhey turns over {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Davison has {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}. The board is {4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts} and Davison is up to 33,000 in chips.

Frattered Away

Marc Fratter raises to 2,000. His opponent is all in for 16,650. Fratter calls and shows {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. The opponent turns over only {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}, but the board is {8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Fratter is down to 2,075.

Four hands later, he's all in for his last 1,775 and Louie Esposito calls. Fratter has {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} to Esposito's {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. The board is {K-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Fratter doubles to 3,500 and is still in chip trouble.
