To the Victor Goes the Spoils

The board read {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} when PokerStars Team USA Pro Victor Ramdin and an opponent got all the chips in the middle.

Ramdin's {a-Spades}{j-Hearts} was in front, but his opponent held {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and was drawing to any club in the deck. The {7-Spades} on the turn gave him two more outs as well, but the {9-Hearts} on the river bricked off.

Ramdin successfully doubled to 105,000 chips and is looking for another deep run at the 2010 WSOP.

Brikdog Chipping Up

Josh "brikdog24" Brikis and Tom Schneider were heads up with the board reading {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Brikis led for 7,200 and Schneider called.

The turn brought the {q-Diamonds} and Brikis led again - this time for 11,200. Schneider again called.

Both players checked the {6-Hearts} on the river and Brikis rolled over {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} for a pair of queens. Schneider mucked, and Brikis is now up to 92,000 chips. Schneider slipped to 102,000.

Sherwood Survives... Just

Manchester's Rob Sherwood found himself all in moments ago from the big blind with {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} versus the {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts} of the under-the-gun player.They say poker's not an athletic sport, but you'd have to be in good shape not to have a heart attack on this board, the dealer rolling out an eventful {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades} to double the Brit through. He now has 83,000.

Firing on all Cylinders

Tom Schneider
Tom Schneider

Tom Schneider is firing on all cylinders at the moment having just eliminated an opponent with {A-}{K-} versus {A-}{Q-} on a king high board. He's now one of around 20 players to boast a 100,000 plus stack, but only one of 217 wearing multi-colored polka-dot shorts...

Assorted Counts

Here some stacks we've grabbed from the Amazon Room:

Schneider Shoves

Alexander Wilson opened to 5,000 from the cutoff at our Table of Death, and Tom Schneider opted to defend his big blind.

The flop fell {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Schneider checked to Wilson who continued for 6,800. Schneider called.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Schneider again checked. Wilson fired 13,600 and Schneider tanked for a bit before shoving for 49,500 total. Wilson thought for a bit before folding.

Schneider is now up to 75,000 chips.
