Tony Korfman Doubles Up Through Leon Lewis

After Korfman raised to 70,000, Lewis re-raised for an additional 100K. Korfman mused over the situation before putting both hands behind his stack and pushing it forward. It cost Lewis another 100K to call and when he did Korfman turned over {K-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, which led Lewis' {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The {4-Spades}{K-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop gave Korfman two pair and the {5-Diamonds} on the turn sealed the deal. Korfmann doubled up to 580,000, which Lewis saw his stack reduced to 410K.

Big Bluff

In the small blind Tony Korfman raised to 60,000 and Thomas Catanzaro called in the big blind. The flop came {K-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Spades} and Catanzaro led out for 50K. Korfman moved all-in for an additional 65,000 and Catanzaro chose to lay his hand down. When he did, Korfman flipped over J-9 and showed the bluff. He now has 340,000 and Catanzaro has slipped to 175K

A Family Pot Pays Off For Rod Clarida

With all six players limping into the pot the betting was checked to Tony Korfman after the {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop and he bet 80,000. Ernest Bennett called and Rod Clarida, who checked from the big blind, moved in for 145,000 more. Korfman folded and Bennett thought it over before mucking. Clarida turned over the 'ol 7-2 for the flopped trips and raked in a pot that pushed his stack up to 550K.

A Study in Contrasts

Jack "The Staten Island Snake" has two plastic cobras, coiled and hooded, sitting atop his chips. Ernest Bennett has a little porcelain kittycat with a red collar sitting on his chips. There's something deep and philosophical to say about that, but I'm not sure what it is.
