Kings Beat Down Jacks

It folded to a player in mid position who looked down at his cards, thought for ten seconds and then moved all-in for 7,450. Two seats along is Paul Parker who made the call. Everyone else folded before we were shown Parker's {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts} to be in great shape against the {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} of his opponent.

The board ran seven high putting Parker up to 18,000 and his opponent to zero.

Lucky Hat

Kenny "Badhat" Piel just tripled up to 17,150 in very fortunate circumstances. He was all-in preflop and got action from two players.

I didn't get the flop action, but after the turn came giving us a board of {7-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {K-Hearts}, one of the players bet, forcing the other to fold {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}. The player who bet held {Q-?} {Q-?} and Piel revealed he had {9-Hearts} {9-Spades}, reducing his outs by two.

It didn't matter though, as the river came {8-Diamonds} to make the gutshot straight and propel him up to 17,150.

Horaay for Boeree

There was a raised pot with multiple callers before the flop came down {4-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}. One player made it 4,500 to go before Liv Boeree moved all-in for 24,500. Her opponent folded and she revealed {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades}.

After a grinding few hours she has some breathing space now with 24,500.

Nines No Good

JC Tran called an early position raise before a flop came down {6-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades}. Tran called a continuation bet before the turn came {2-Diamonds}.

This time the bet was a little larger for Tran to consider, as it was an all-in for 16,150. He made it though and quickly saw his {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds} was behind his opponent's {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades}.

The river came {3-Diamonds} and it dropped Tran to 36,000.
