Action on the River

Marc Naalden raised from the hijack seat, and only Joep Van Den Bijgaart called from the big blind. They both checked the {J-Clubs}{K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} flop and {9-Spades} turn. The river brought the {7-Spades}. This time Van Den Bijgaart bet, Naalden raised, and Van Den Bijgaart folded.

Mueller's Stack Rising

With the board showing {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, Greg "FBT" Mueller bet, David Williams raised, and Mueller called. The river was the {10-Diamonds}. This time Mueller checked, Williams bet, Mueller check-raised, and Williams called.

Mueller turned over {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for the turned straight, and Williams showed A-J for top two.

Those tall columns of chips Mueller likes to build are getting higher. Mueller now has about 875,000, while Williams is at 470,000.

Marc Flushed With Success

The flop was {J-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}, Sterling led out, Naalden called and Malaguti folded.

On the {6-Hearts} turn Sterling fired again and Naalden raised, Sterling called. The river was the {K-Diamonds} and Naalden fired after a check. Sterling made the call and the Dutchman showed {Q-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

Williams Moves Four-Ward

David Williams has just won two big pots from Flaminio Malaguti. The first saw a {4-?} {J-?} X X {J-?} board where Williams held {4-?} {4-?} against Malaguti's Jack.

The very next hand saw Williams bet the flop and turn of a {6-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {10-Spades} {7-Clubs} board. Malaguti called him down and too a shot at the {Q-Spades} river. Williams called with {4-Clubs} {4-Spades} which was good against {J-Clubs} {8-Clubs}.

Double Nachos?

With the flop reading {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {8-Hearts}, Nacho Barbero bet out and Joep Van Den Bijgaart called. The turn was the {J-Hearts} and Barbero moved in, Van Den Bijgaart called with {A-Hearts} {7-Hearts} against Barbero's {K-Hearts} {J-Spades}.

The river was the {J-Clubs} making the Argentine's full house to double up to 120,000.
