Leibovitz Takes Pot from Woolf

[user22113]

Dustin Woolf raised to 18,000 under the gun and Gary Leibovitz called from the button. The flop came {4-Diamonds}

and Woolf checked. Leibovitz bet 28,000 and Woolf raised to 74,000. Leibovitz wasted no time in reraising to 160,000, and Woolf went into the tank.

He asked if he could call the clock on himself and when told that he could not, Steve Billirakis did. Woolf carefully deliberated, but time ran out and his hand was mucked.

Gary Leibovitz is up to 405,000 while Dustin Woolf falls to 315,000.

[user22113]

On a board reading {10-Diamonds}

, John Callahan moved all in for about 130,000 and was snap-called by Dustin Woolf, who turned up {J-Spades}

for a straight. Callahan was caught bluffing with {A-Clubs}

and would need to spike a queen on the river to survive. It did not come and Callahan hit the rail in 16th place.
