If Anyone Can, Cantu Can

Brandon Cantu is up to 62,000 after winning a nice pot off Dutch Boyd, who has dropped to 23,000 as a result. I arrived at the very end, Cantu showing {A-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} to Boyd's {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}. Judging by his grimace, Boyd didn't like his card on seventh street, and duly checked before announcing "fours" with a sigh. Cantu took it down with aces.

"Ah man," huffed Boyd. "Gotta build a little house."

Marshall Law

Justin Truesdell: (mucked) / {4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Allyn Marshall: {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} / {3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

We caught up with the action on sixth street, when Justin Truesdell checked his fours.

"Let's see if I'm freerolling," said Allyn Marshall. He peeked at his down cards. "I'm freerolling," he said, and bet. Truesdell made the call.

Truesdell checked seventh street as well and called another bet from Marshall, who revealed a pair of kings. Truesdell spent a while looking accusingly at his cards as though they should have tried harder to be different cards and then mucked.

Marshall - up to 27,000
Truesdell - down to just 3,000

Kerpow! Splat! Kablooey! Hoivold Busto

Doug Saab: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} / {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs} / {q-Hearts}
Andreas Hoivold: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} / {4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Clubs} / {2-Diamonds}
Olivia Mandell: {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} / {8-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} / {3-Diamonds}

Andreas Hoivold, who according to poker legend is the owner of the biggest comic book collection in Norway, was all in early in the hand. Betting continued between Olivia Mandell and Doug Saab, and by fifth or sixth street Mandell was all in as well and all three players turned their cards over.

In the end none of the players made a low, and Mandell's rivered two pair was good to scoop the pot. She more than doubled up to 19,000. Hoivold meanwhile was
