Burt Boutin Takes a 34,000 Pot

A player raises from early position to 7,000, and Burt Boutin calls from the cutoff. The flop comes {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, his opponent bets 7,000, and Boutin calls. The turn card is the {7-Spades}, his opponent checks, Boutin bets 13,000, and his opponent folds. Boutin takes the pot worth 34,000.

Eric Hershler Doubles Up to 101,000

Eric Hershler raises under the gun to 6,000, the player in seat 3 pushes, and Hershler calls all in for 45,600 with {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}. His opponent shows {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}, and Hershler is in a dominant position to double up.

The board comes {Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and Hershler's pocket aces hold up, doubling his stack to 101,000.
