Maurice Hawkins
Maurice Hawkins

Action exploded on the river of a board that read {j-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}. All the chips ended up in the middle after a bet, shove and call happened in rapid succession.

Maurice Hawkins turned over the {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} while Paulius Vaitiekunas said "wow what a cooler" and showed the {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for the no good second boat and Hawkins took in the monster pot.

Turner Builds an Image

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

As the rest of the table was still continuing the conversation about Joshua Turner folding pocket kings preflop, Turner was back in the saddle and playing another hand. Turner raised to 50,000 in middle position and Jordan Piva three-bet to 140,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Turner called.

The flop fell {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Spades} and Turner checked to Piva who continued for 170,000. Turner slid out a check-raise to 500,000 and Piva thought for a minute before folding. Turner showed {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Maurice Hawkins had a new hand to talk about now.

Salazar Drops the Biggest Hammer

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

There was a flurry of preflop action as Paulius Valtiekunas raised to 40,000 from early position. Adam Cedric three-bet to 85,000. From the button, Eric Salazar made a big four-bet to 335,000. Joshua Turner thought for a while, assessing all the action in front of him before folding his hand seemingly reluctantly. Valtiekunas quickly got out of the way and Cedric folded after about ten seconds and Salazar scooped up his pre-flop winnings.

After the hand, Turner announced that he folded pocket kings and Maurice Hawkins was in disbelief. The rail, who apparently saw Turner's hand, confirmed the fold. The table chat continued for many hands after with Hawkins voicing the loudest opinion.

Easy Come, Easy Go

Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Ryan Eriquezzo opened to 38,000 in middle position and Jarod Minghini shipped all in for 284,000 in the cutoff. Joshua Turner re-shoved all in over the top in the small blind and Eriquezzo folded.

Jarod Minghini: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Joshua Turner: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Minghini held on for a full double up to over 600,000.

In the next hand, Paulius Vaitiekunas raised to 35,000 from under the gun and was called by Minghini in the hijack, Turner on the button, and Maurice Hawkins in the small blind.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Hawkins checked to Vaitiekunas who continued for 50,000. Minghini and Turner called while Hawkins folded. The turn was the {j-Hearts} and the action checked to Minghini who pushed out a bet of 165,000. Turner folded and Vaitiekunas check-raised all in. Minghini thought for a minute but decided to send his cards to the muck.

"Ace-queen of hearts," Hawkins announced. Vaitiekunas replied by showing {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a similar type of hand.
