Why Can't We Be Friends?

PokerStars Team Brazil Pro Andre Akkari
PokerStars Team Brazil Pro Andre Akkari

There are two Team PokerStars Pros at Table 103 in the Pavilion Room. Andre Akkari (Brazil) and Darus Suharto (Canada) are seated next to one another and butted heads recently when Akkari raised to 600 from the button and Suharto called from the small blind.

The two checked the hand down and the board ran {6-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}.

Akkari opened {3-Spades}{3-Hearts} for just a pair of threes and Suharto mucked. The two laughed at the fact that a lowly pair pair of threes took the pot down.

"Hey," a player at the table griped. "No friends at the table."

Where's Your Hair?

"Man I wish I had his hair!"
"Man I wish I had his hair!"

I guess the Daniel Negreanu level continues with this clip-it from his table.

"Are you Ashman?" asked Daniel Negreanu in the direction of Ashton Griffin.

"Yeah" he responded.

"I thought I played with an Ashman. They said Ashman was pretty good and I won, I was proud of myself!" added Negreanu.

"Didn't you used to have hair before?" asked Negreanu.

"Yeah long hair" replied Griffin.

"Get sick of it?"

"Yeah"

"Going with the prison look?" added Negreanu as the table laughed along with his joke.

Beckman Busto

Garrett Beckman committed the majority of his stack preflop - albeit 700 - with an opponent making the call before the remainder went in on the {7-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop.

Beckman: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The turn and river landed the {3-Spades} and {7-Diamonds} to see Beckman hit the rail.

Phil Fibs

The board read {10-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and there was about 1,000 in the pot when Phil Hellmuth bet 425 into Andrew Feldman.

"On the river I'm going to bet 625," Hellmuth told him.

Feldman opted to call and the river brought the {9-Clubs}.

Hellmuth checked and pleaded Feldman to bet.

"Come on value bet me," he demanded.

Feldman obliged and bet 1,625. Hellmuth folded.

Bing!

Nick Binger opened to 800 from under the gun and was called by two players.

The flop fell {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and the big blind checked to Binger who bet 1,500. An early-position player called and the big blind folded.

Both players checked the {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {A-Clubs} on the river and Binger rolled over {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for aces and nines. His opponent mucked, and Binger is now up to 37,000 chips.

Chop It Up

This look like a man with two fours?
This look like a man with two fours?

Phil Hellmuth limped from under the gun and the action folded to Andrew Feldman in the small blind.

"Be careful," Hellmuth warned. "I limped in first position."

Feldman ignored the warning and raised to 2,000. The big blind released and Hellmuth jammed for only 1,000 more. Feldman called.

Showdown
Hellmuth: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Feldman: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

The board ran {4-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and the rail erupted.

"You really thought you hand the best hand?" Hellmuth protested.

"Thought you had ace-jack," Feldman returned.

"ACE-JACK!?"

"Two fours?"

"TWO FOURS?!?!?!!?!!?!??!!?!"
