Spidey's Stack Climbs

The UTG player raised to 10,000 and Partho "Spiderman" Data called from the big blind. The flop was the {A-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Spiderman checked, the UTG player bet 14,000, Spiderman raised to 30,000, and the UTG player called. Before the turn card could be dealt, Spiderman moved all in in the dark. After a long think, the UTG player folded. Spiderman showed A-Q.

Spidey was up to 330,000 after the hand.

Lerner Folds A-A... Or Does He?

On a board of {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{K-Spades}, Seat 3 bet 9,000, Derek Lerner raised to 20,000, and Seat 3 pushed all in. After a long time, Lerner folded disgustedly, shouting "Two f*$kin' aces!"

Lerner's twin brother came over to the table and called him a liar.

"If you had two f*$kin' aces you would have pushed pre-flop!" he quipped.

Phil Hellmuth Eliminated

Partho "Spiderman" Data raised to 10,000 from middle position. "No trick, I have to raise it" said Phil Hellmuth as he made it 25,000 from the small blind. Spiderman called.

The flop was the {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}. Hellmuth turned to Spiderman and said "Did you flop a set on me?" before betting 15,000. Spiderman immediately moved all in and Hellmuth started into one of his classic rants.

"You go crazy with two fives? I haven't bet this much in this tournament in a single hand yet!" Hellmuth counted out his chips, shook his head and asked Spiderman "What do you have? Did you really go crazy? A-Q suited?"

At this point, the player in the 4 seat called the clock on Hellmuth. The Poker Brat predictably went into a tirade.

"How long have I taken? That's not right! Will you let me focus? You're abusing the clock, you'll get a 20 minute penalty if you do it again!"

Hellmuth finally called and showed his signature hand, the {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}, while Spiderman turned over the {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. The turn was a 5, making Spiderman's wheel. Hellmuth fell out of his chair and started rolling around on the ground.

"Yes! Yes!" shouted Spiderman. "That stone cold idiot tried to bluff me!" moaned Hellmuth as he hit the rail.
