Mel Makes 'Em Fold

[user38449]

Showing

, Mel Judah bet out on fourth street against an ultra-aggressive Yuebin Guo, whose upcards were {10-Diamonds}

.

Guo, who almost always gives action, mucked his hand, and Judah turned over a pair of aces in the hole, saying, "That's a shame."

Mel has an impressive Seven Card Stud resume; he's won two WSOP bracelets in stud and currently ranks second on the all-time seven-stud money list at the WSOP (Artie Cobb owns the top spot).

Mel also placed third at the 1997 WSOP Main Event -- the only time the event was held outdoors (also the year Stu Ungar captured his third World Title).

Tony G. Juices the Party

[user38449]

After having posted a victory in his second round match of the Heads-Up Championship, Tony G. showed up in the Player's Pavilion to play some Seven Card Stud.

Having bet every street prior to sixth, Tony fired a fourth bullet showing {K-Diamonds}

and his opponent called with upcards of {7-Clubs}

.

When his opponent made the call, Tony asked, "Do you want a spade?"

Tony checked the river and his opponent bet $150, suggesting he'd hit the river. Tony made the call and his opponent flipped over {A-Spades}

, for an ace-high flush.

The hand left Tony with 2,700 chips.
