Charder Sniffs Out a Bluff

Anthony Spinella raised to 10,000 on the button, and Dmitry Motorov called out of the small blind. Then in the big blind, Christian Harder squeezed to 36,500. Both players called to see the flop - {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. After all that preflop aggression, action checked around postflop. The {a-Hearts} turn got things going again. Motorov checked, and Charder bet 16,500, about one seventh of the pot. Spinella folded, and Motorov called. The {3-Hearts} on the river completed a flush draw, and Motorov took the opportunity to fire 80,000 at the pot.

Charder tanked for several minutes, uttering a frustrated curse or two. Finally, he convinced himself to make the call. Motorov could only show {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for just a pair of ducks. And Charder was rewarded handsomely for his bold call with {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

Motorov fell to 272,000, while Charder moved up to 390,000.

Diamonds for Devilfish

On a {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop, David Ulliott checked to his lone opponent, Matthias Neu, who bet. Then Devilfish check-shoved on him for a total of 117,500. Neu called with {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a flush. Too bad for him, Devilfish too had a flush, the nut flush to be exact, with {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. The turn and river were both queens, but no one had a pair so the three queens didn't change anything. Ulliott scooped the pot and chipped up to 300,000. "Cooler, huh?" said Devilfish. "Pretty much," agreed Neu, who was down to 208,000.

Bell Rung Out

Chris Bell and Tyler Kenney got it all in preflop. Bell had Kenney just slightly covered, but Kenney was ahead with {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} to Bell's {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Hard to get a better flop for Kenney than {10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. The {j-Spades} turn and {5-Diamonds} river weren't runner-runner aces, so Kenney doubled to 204,000. Bell was down to 5,000 and eliminated the next hand.

D'Angelo's Gutterball Cripples Kenney

After Tyler Kenney opened for a raise and Ryan D'Angelo three-bet him, Kenney jammed for effectively 130,000. D'Angelo called.

Showdown
Kenney: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
D'Angelo: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

D'Angelo needed some help and flopped four extra outs when the dealer fanned {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}. The {10-Spades} completed his broadway straight and after the {7-Diamonds} bricked on the river he successfully doubled to 265,000 chips.

Kenney is crippled to just 65,000.
