Moore v. Moore

Charles Moore opened the pot to 26,000, then called a three-bet of 78,000 from Sean Moore. Between them, they give the Moore's about a 13% chance of winning this thing. Anyways, "Woody" called the three-bet from Sean, and it was heads-up to the flop.

The dealer spread out {4-Clubs} {K-Spades} {5-Clubs}. Woody was first to act, and he reached for betting chips. "Seventy-eight thousand," he said, copycatting his opponent's preflop action with 78,000 of his own chips. Sean wasn't going anywhere, though, and he quickly raised all in for 168,000 total. Woody asked for the count, tanked for just a minute, then folded.

Becky Makar Eliminated in 16th Place ($5,152)

Jim Devaney started the action with an opening raise to 20,000 and Becky Makar called from the big blind. The flop came {J-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {9-Spades}, Makar bet 50,000 and Devaney smooth called. The turn came {9-Hearts} and Makar pushed out 50,000 again. Devaney flatted a second time and the river fell {A-Hearts}. Makar moved all in and Devaney wasted no time announcing a call.

Devaney turned up {J-Hearts} {J-Spades} for full house and Makar showed {K-Hearts} {J-Spades}.

Steve Kats Eliminated in 17th Place ($5,152)

Becky Makar opened the action to 25,000 from late position, and Steve Kats three-bet shoved next door. It was about 145,000 total, and Makar tanked and called for a good chunk of her own stack. She was right, though.

Showdown
Makar: {A-Clubs} {7-Clubs}
Kats: {K-Spades} {J-Hearts}

Makar held strong as the board ran out {7-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {8-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Kats was unable to get over the hump, and he's been eliminated in 17th place.
