Jamin Stokes Not Jammin'

On a {7-Hearts} {J-Spades} {2-Spades} {A-Clubs} board, Jamin Stokes was faced with a bet of 2,500. Stokes raised, making it 6,000 total. His opponent tanked, then called. The {5-Clubs} river saw both players check, and {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} was revealed by the opponent. Stokes mucked and is down to 17,000.

Kevin "BeL0WaB0Ve" Saul Takes Big Hit

Kevin Saul and an opponent saw a flop of {J-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {4-Spades}. The action was checked to Saul, who bet 2,000. His opponent raised to 7,000, and Saul stayed along. The {3-Diamonds} turn saw the unknown player bet 10,000. Saul moved all in and was immediately called all in for 26,400 by his opponent.

Saul had a pained look on his face as he turned up {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts}, needing to catch up against {J-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}. The river came the {10-Diamonds}, and Kevin Saul has dropped to about 20,000.
