Fininzio Finds a Full House on the River

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Jake Bazeley bet 27,000 into a pot of 45,000 on a {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} board, and Alexander Fininzio quickly jammed to put Bazeley at risk for his last 90,000. Bazeley tanked for a minute, then folded.

Fininzio flashed his {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} at Bazeley, prompting Bazeley to say, "Perfect card."

Jessica Dawley
Jessica Dawley

Robert Keeling and Jessica Dawley got into a blind-versus-blind battle that saw Dawley get her last 60,000 in from the big blind, and Keeling had her at risk with a call.

Jessica Dawley: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Robert Keeling: {a-}{k-}

Keeling improved to a pair of kings on the {8-Clubs}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts} flop, but got no further help on the {3-Spades} turn and {9-Diamonds} river to earn Dawley a double.

Benjamin Grise Bubbles the 2019 WSOPC Horseshoe Southern Indiana Main Event

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

A lengthy hand just before the bubble process began saw Benjamin Grise check a {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} board from the big blind, and Thomas Alcorn bet 50,000 into a pot of 80,000 in middle position. Grise announced, "Raise," then jammed for 150,000 total, and Alcorn quickly called.

Benjamin Grise: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Thomas Alcorn: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Grise failed to hit a king on the {4-Clubs} river, and Alcorn burst the bubble, guaranteeing the remaining field a $2,550 minimum payday.

A Quartet of Payouts

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ravi Raghavan
Ravi Raghavan

Robert Georato called the three-bet shove of Josh Snodgrass for his last 50,000, and Snodgrass was in good shape to survive and double up.

Josh Snodgrass: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Robert Georato: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Georato picked up a Broadway draw on the {6-Spades}{q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop, but bricked the {3-Spades} turn. The {j-Spades} river completed the Broadway straight for Georato, and he eliminated Snodgrass.

In rapid fashion, Ravi Raghavan, Daniel Sepiol, and Carlos Loving followed Snodgrass to the cashier.

Underwood Runs into Aces

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Christopher Underwood opened the action with a raise to 12,000 from the hi-jack, Joseph Lamkin three-bet next to act to 36,000 and the action folded around to Garry Simms who moved all-in for roughly 150,000. Underwood didn't take much time before calling his remaining stack of roughly 120,000 and Lamkin quickly got out of the way,

Garry Simms: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Christopher Underwood: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Underwood was in bad shape with his underpair, and the board was no help when it ran out {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, sending him to the payout desk.
