Cochrane Doubles

Pot-Limit Omaha

On the flop of {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Gavin Cochrane fired 45,000 and was called by Jose-Luis Velador. The turn brought the {Q-Hearts} and Cochrane fired almost all of his stack for 95,000. He only had 19,000 behind and Velador made the call.

The river completed the board with the {A-Clubs} and Cochrane pushed the last bit of his stack in. Velador's face looked pained, but he know he had to call off the last little bit and did so. Cochrane showed the {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}-X-X for a club flush and doubled up to about 340,000 chips.

Pot-Limit Hold'em

Kevin MacPhee raised to 40,000 from under the gun and then Matt Sterling reraised all in from the big blind for 128,000. MacPhee made the call. He held the {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Sterling held the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}. Sterling was racing with two suited overcards for his tournament life.

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and MacPhee stayed in front. The turn kept him in the lead with the {6-Hearts} and then the river completed the board with the {10-Diamonds} to give MacPhee an unneeded full house. He sent Sterling to the rail in ninth place for over $20,000.

Velador Makes the Wheel

Pot-Limit Omaha

Victor Ramdin raised to 31,000 from under the gun. Jose-Luis Velador called and then James Mitchell called from the big blind.

The flop came down {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Mitchell checked to Ramdin. He fired a bet of 52,000 and then Velador called. Mitchell folded.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} and Ramdin checked. Velador though for a moment and then bet 135,000. Play moved back to Ramdin and he had a decision to make: call the 100,000 or not? He opted to make the call.

The river was the {Q-Spades} and Ramdin checked. Velador thought while staring at the board for a minute or so. He then cut out a bet and fired 178,000. Ramdin tanked for a solid few minutes before finally pushing in the chips for the call.

Velador tabled a wheel and Ramdin mucked, sending over the chips to Velador.
