Higgins Forced to Fold

Andrew Higgins opened to 2,800 from middle position, and the action folded to a player in the big blind, who called.

The flop fell {2-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, and the player in the big blind checked. Higgins continued for 3,100, and his opponent quickly check-raised to 14,100. Higgins unhappily folded, but he's still very strong with roughly 70,000 chips.

Atwood Takes a Hit

It all started when JC Tran opened to 2,300 from under the gun. Four players called, including Jim Atwood in the cutoff and Bruce Peterson in the big blind. The flop fell {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}, and the action checked to Atwood, who fired 3,800. Only a player on the button called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, both players checked, and the river brought the {3-Hearts}. Atwood checked, his opponent fired 9,000, and Atwood tank-called. The player rolled over {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a straight, and Atwood mucked his hand.

Big Stacks Do Battle

John Song and Robert Hancock were heads up on a flop of {2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. Song checked, Hancock fired 4,200, and Song called.

The {a-Clubs} turned, both players checked, and the {6-Spades} completed the board. Song led out for 5,200, and Hancock promptly fired 20,200. Song examined his stack, but after less than 30 seconds in the tank, he folded.

Hankcock proudly tabled {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for queen-high.

Olisar's Roller Coaster

Ryan Olisar
Ryan Olisar

After doubling Carter Myers holding two sevens - Myers had two tens, the money went in preflop, and Myers held - Ryan Olisar moved all in again with sevens, this time on a juicy flop of {8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. His opponent called all-in, creating a 90,000-chip pot, and tabled two nines.

The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave the player an open-ended straight draw, but the {k-Spades} bricked on the river, and Olisar won the pot.

After two turbulent hands, Olisar is now back above six figures with about 120,000 in chips.
