Frick-rolled

We caught up with the action on a {3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{A-Spades}{5-Diamonds} board where Jimmy Fricke was facing a bet of 800. After a bit of time, Fricke made the call and checked to his opponent when the {Q-Diamonds} hit the river. The player moved all in fairly quickly for 2,100 and Fricke called quite fast. The player turned over {3-Clubs}{3-Spades} for bottom set which was good for the pot as Fricke's stack took a tumble.

With a {A-}{K-}{J-}{3-}{Q-} board Channing was eliminated, he even started walking away after the jack hit on the flop despite having an out with a {10-}.

Pilgrim Cracks Aces

A player made it 375 from early position and it folded around to Dwyte Pilgrim who made it 900 total. Action folded back around to the original raiser who moved all in for 4,200 total. Pilgrim made the call and the hands were turned over.

Pilgrim: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}

Pilgrim was crushed but got a surge of hope when the flop came {10-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Spades}, giving him four to the flush. He got there on the turn with the {9-Spades} and his opponent was sent home. Pilgrim is now sitting over three-times starting stack.

We found David Williams and a shorter stack all in against another player on a {6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop.

Williams: {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Short Stack: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The turn and river came the {5-Hearts} and {K-Spades} which were of no help to either player at risk and they were both eliminated.
