Can't Stop Jaka

With the board reading {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Spades}, Faraz Jaka led for 900 and his opponent called.

The {2-Clubs} turned and Jaka led for 2,400. His opponent again called.

The {3-Spades} fell on the river and Jaka led for a huge bet; 15,000. His opponent called for a third time but mucked when Jaka tabled {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for a rivered full house.

There's no stopping Jaka right now, he's up to 80,000 chips.

Negreanu Doubles

Daniel Negreanu opened and a player moved all in over the top of him. Negreanu called and the hands were tabled:

Showdown
Negreanu: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

The {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop all but ended the hand and it was official after the {2-Diamonds} turned. The {7-Spades} river was but a formality and Negreanu doubled to 15,000 chips.

RaSZi Rivered

Walking past Lex 'RaSZi' Veldhuis' table we noticed that his chair was vacant.

Veldhuis held Kings and Jeremy Ausmus ace-king with all the money going in preflop.

Unfortunately for Veldhuis, the river would fall an ace to send him to the rail.
