What a Shane: Schleger Busts

[user46392]

Shane Schleger is a recent casualty, moving in on a {Q-Diamonds}

flop with

but finding himself up against another player's {A-Hearts}

. A total absence of kings and not enough diamonds to save Schleger on the {2-Diamonds}

turn and

river, and out he goes.

All's Fair in Love and Card(oza)s

[user46392]

Ryan Fair, one of our big stacks, has dropped just a little. The player to his right raised, and Fair reraised heftily -- only for Avery Cardoza in the big blind to move all in. The original raiser quickly got out of the way, and Fair called, only to find that his {K-Diamonds}

had smacked right into Cardoza's {A-Diamonds}

. No change on the board, and Cardoza doubled up. Fair is still on a commanding 46,000 or so, though.

All Peachy for Melber

[user46392]

A fortuitous outdraw for Harry Melber. He found himself holding a mere {A-Diamonds}

against an all-in opponent's {A-?}

, but oh, the board can be so cruel.

Board: {3-?}

Melber made a straight, and his opponent made his way out.

By the Gracz of God

[user46392]

down a

board.
