Stern Upbraiding

[user46392]
[user46392]
Max Stern has taken a serious hit after Chad Brown scooped a pot to put the Chadster up to 375,000 while Stern drops to 110,000.

Stern: {A-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} ({3-Spades} {6-Spades} {9-Spades}) for two pair
Brown: {10-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {J-Hearts} {K-Clubs} ({J-Spades} {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}) for a higher two pair

Four-Way Madness

Zak Gilbert dropped down to 70,000 after Matt Savage doubled through him with a deuce-to-six straight and accompanying low.

A couple hands later he found himself all in by 7th street with three other players in. Yikes

Savage: {2-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {9-Spades} (mucked)
Gilbert: {A-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {3-Clubs} ({7-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Spades}) for the low
Brown: {A-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} ({10-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}) for the high
Stern: {4-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {A-Hearts} ({6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}) for absolutely nothing

Gilbert: up to 110,000
Savage: 170,000
Brown: up to 460,000
Stern: down to 85,000

How Are They Looking?

Mainly like a bunch of guys playing cards, but these are the current standings:

Halpern: 370,000
Stern: 70,000
Brown: 460,000
Swinford: 270,000
Savage: 160,000
Kohler: 425,000
Gilbert: 265,000

Swinford Takes a Dive

[user46392]
[user46392]
David Halpern bet on every street and Brian Swinford called all the way down until 7th street, when he decided that whatever his down cards were, they weren't good enough to call.

Halpern: {J-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} (showed {J-Clubs} {8-Diamonds})
Swinford: {3-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {10-Spades} {Q-Clubs} (mucked with force)

Swinford is down to 160,000.

Everyone's On a Boat

Some dreadful misfortune for Zak Gilbert, when his rather nice-looking full house looked rather less nice next to David Halpern's bigger full house. Ouch.

Halpern up to a massive 650,000, Gilbert back down to 160,000.

Gilbert: {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {A-Spades} {3-Diamonds} ({7-Hearts} {3-Spades} {4-Spades})
Halpern: {10-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {J-Spades} ({6-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {J-Clubs})

Smoking Kohler

An enormous three-way hand saw the pot swell to over 300,000 by the time William Kohler bet out on 7th. Chad Brown stared at his down cards a moment before folding, but David Halpern called.

"Three jacks," announced Kohler and duly flipped his hand over. With a slightly sad chuckle, Halpern mucked.

Halpern: {8-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} (muck)
Brown: {7-Spades} {9-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {4-Clubs} (fold)
Kohler: {A-Hearts} {3-Spades} {10-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} ({J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {5-Hearts})
