Markholt Moving Up

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

With the flop showing {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}, Lee Markholt, on the cutoff, got all of the chips in against a button opponent, with Markholt having the opponent covered.

Button: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Lee Markholt: {k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

A full house came in for Markholt on the {3-Spades} turn, leaving the opponent drawing dead. After an inconsequential {j-Spades} fell on the river, Markholt collected the pot and moved into six-figure territory, with 115,000 chips.

Zobian's Shove Shuts Down the Opposition

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

A player in middle position open limped, and got calls from the cutoff and button.

Aram Zobian moved all in for his last 42,000, and the original limper went into the tank. After asking for a count on Zobian and thinking for a few moments, however, the player folded.

The two remaining players followed suit, and Zobian took down the pot uncontested.
