Cartwright Puts the Screws to Doerr

Eric Doerr opened the hand to 8,500 from the cutoff and only Kyle Cartwright felt like playing from the big blind. Cartwright re-raised to 21,500 and after Doerr asked him what he had behind Doerr called. The flop came {7-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {10-Hearts}, Cartwright bet 23,000 and Doerr called. The turn came {9-Clubs} and Carwright moved all in.

After several moments Doerr wanted a count and then said, "Show me if I fold?."

Cartwright sat motionless and the that prompted Doerr to say, "I've got a big hand here buddy." That said, Doerr folded pocket jacks face up and Cartwright took the pot.

Phan Gets Talked Out, Makes Correct Laydown

A player opened the action by raising to 6,500. In the small blind, Tuan Phan opted to pop it up to 15,000. His opponent called and the flop came {J-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

Phan reached for a stack of orange T1,000 chips and stacked out a bet of 20,000. His opponent, however, pushed back, making it 47,000 to go. As Phan pondered, his opponent began to talk:

"You're behind right now," Phan's opponent said. "I promise you. And I'll show you. I'm not an angle shooter. I'll show."

"You'll show?" asked Phan curiously. With this bit of information, it seemed, Phan made his decision. Phan mucked {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} faced up.

"Ugh," his opponent groaned. "Why do I talk? Why do I talk?!" His opponent tabled {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flopped flush. Phan made the correct laydown but still took a hit to his stack.

Clinkscales Makes Quads

An early position short stacked player raised the action to 6,000 and it folded around to Rex Clinkscales who made it 20,000 from the big blind. The original raiser moved all in and Clinkscales snap called.

Clinkscales: {A-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}

Clinkscales had the lead and kept it when the flop came {9-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{A-Spades}. His opponent was drawing dead when the {Q-Hearts} turned, but Clinkscales still managed to make quads when the {A-Clubs} fell on the river.

Overton Crushing

Aaron Overton came into play today as the chip leader and his domination has not faltered since the day began. We caught up to find a board reading {4-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. Overton checked, as did another player. From the button, Eric Doerr threw out 9,500. Overton made a raise, making it 24,000, and the third player in the hand thought for quite some time before throwing away his cards.

Fifth street brought the {9-Clubs} and after a moment Overton pushed out one tall stack of orange T1,000 chips, totaling 44,000. Doerr eventually mucked his hand meekly and Overton was able to absorb even more of his table's chips.
