Limit Hold'em:

David Pham raised preflop, Nam Le reraised, and a late-position player called. Pham three bet it when it came back to him, and both opponents came along.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {2-Clubs}. Action checked to the late-position player, and he put in a bet. Pham called, Le raised, and the third man reraised back. Pham folded and Le called.

The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and both players checked.

The river came the {4-Hearts}. Le bet out and his opponent called. Le showed down {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}, having flopped a set. The other player open mucked his {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}, and Le takes down a nice pot in the early stages.

No-Limit Hold'em:

Tim Vance called a raise in early position from a player under the gun. The two players took the flop of {K-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {2-Diamonds}. Vance's opponent bet 500 on the flop and Vance raised to 1,200. His opponent then shoved all in.

Right as he made the call and flipped over pocket threes, Vance said "Can you beat that? Didn't think so."

His opponent showed {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} and then turn and river came {K-Diamonds}, {A-Hearts}, to give Vance the win. Vance is now up to 5,100 after eliminating his opponent.

Three Outs For the Win

No-Limit Hold'em:

Scott Seiver and another player were heads up on a flop of {K-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {A-Diamonds}. Seiver bet out all in for his last 1,950 chips, and his opponent went into the tank for a good while before making the call. Sevier tabled {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades}, and was well ahead of his opponent's {A-Spades} {10-Clubs}. Trouble found Seiver on the turn though, as the {10-Spades} paired the other player's kicker and put Seiver on the brink. The {7-Clubs} on the river was no help, and Scott Seiver has been knocked out.

Rep Porter in a Bad Mahmood Now

No-Limit Hold'em:

Ayaz Mahmood and Rep Porter limped into a pot a moment ago and saw a flop of {3-?} {9-?} {10-?}. Porter went all in for 450 chips with {A-?} {10-?} off-suit, and Mahmood made the call with {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs}.

An {8-?} came on the turn to make Mahmood his straight, and leave Porter drawing dead. Just for good measure, the river brought a {K-?} to make him the six-card straight as Porter headed off into the crowd.
