Ferguson Gets the Chop

[user46392]

Chris Ferguson, our multi-tabler of the day, raised out of the big blind and got two callers to see a {6-Hearts}

flop. The small blind checked to him and he bet; the gent in mid position who'd called to see a flop folded, and the small blind called.

The small blind bet out on the {5-Spades}

turn and Ferguson raised all in; a call later and they were on their backs.

Mr. Small Blind: {K-Clubs}

Ferguson:

River:

Choppity, chop.

He's still precarious on 3,000.

Burgoine Burgeoned, But Buckled

[user46392]

Matthew Burgoine is down to 7,000 after calling a bet on the {7-Spades}

flop, checking behind on the {K-Hearts}

turn and then calling another bet on the {2-Hearts}

river. His opponent showed {A-Hearts}

for a full house, Burgoine mucked, and that was the end of it.
