Gavin gets back some chips

The pot is raised to 275 by the cutoff, Gavin Smith calls from the button, as does CK Hua in the big blind.

The flop is {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Hua checks, the cutoff bets, and both Smith and Hua call.

The turn is the {5-Clubs} and it is checked around.

The river is the {8-Spades}

Hua bets 600, the cutoff folds and Smith raises to 1600. Hua mucks his hand and Gavin takes down the pot.

Billy Baxter Likes His Fives

Billy Baxter was in a hand with one opponent. The flop was {3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, Baxter moved all-in and his opponent called. The last two cards were the {5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Baxter turned over the {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a set. His opponent showed K-J before he mucked his cards. Baxter had 9,000 in chips, after the hand.

And Keeps On Roaring

It's a bit hot in the Poker Pavilion--and apparently getting hotter, as the vents are blowing warm air. Which is not sitting well with Mike Matusow:

"We're paying 10% juice, and you get $14 hamburgers and warm air blowing on you! I'd pay 1% more for air conditioning!"
