Some Hands with Tuan Le

Hold'em

Tuan Le opened to 1,2000 and Daniel Alaei made the call to see a {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop fall. Le fired out a 600-chip continuation-bet to force a fold from Alaei.

Two hands later, Le defended his big blind following a Shawn Buchanan raise as the dealer dropped a {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts} flop. Le checked and Buchanan bet out 600 only to have Le make it 1,200. Buchanan called, but then folded when Le led for 1,200 on the {K-Spades}.

The very next hand Le opened his small blind to 1,200 and Erik Seidel defended his big. The {Q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop saw Le check-fold to Seidel's bet of 600, but still kept his stack hovering around the 41,000-chip mark.

Brown Slips

Level 6

Stud

Catching the action on fifth street, we found Andrew Brown betting out against Chino Rheem. Rheem made the call, and then proceeded to call bets on sixth and seventh street.

Brown: (X)(X) / {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} / (X)
Rheem: (X)(X) / {6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades} / (X)

Rheem tabled his {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, and once Brown mucked, Rheem moved to 31,000 as Brown was left with 8,100 in chips.

Bari Climbs

Razz

Allen Bari bet out on fourth and fifth street with his opponent Mikhail Savinov making the call before both players checked sixth. Savinov check-folded to Bari's seventh street bet as both player's boards read as follows.

Bari: (X)(X / {6-}{8-}{J-}{6-} / (X)
Savinov: (X)(X) / {A-}{Q-}{10-}{3-} / (X)

As Bari scooped the pot, he moved to 18,000 as Savinov slipped to 32,000 in chips.

Buchanan and Le Chop Up Seidel

Omaha-8

From middle position, Tuan Le limped in. Erik Seidel was in the hijack seat and raised before Shawn Buchanan reraised from the cutoff seat. Action folded back around to Le and he called. Seidel also called and it was three-handed play to the flop.

The first three community cards were the {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Le and Seidel checked to Buchanan and he bet. Le and Seidel both made the call.

The {8-Hearts} fell on the turn, which meant the hand was now eligible for a low half of the pot. Le bet, Seidel called and Buchanan raised. Le and Seidel both called.

The {6-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and Le and Seidel checked. Buchanan bet and both of his opponents called one final time.

Buchanan showed the {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, Le tabled the {9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Seidel mucked. Buchanan won the high half of the pot while Le scooped the low half.

"The best hand ever."

Omaha-8

Four players were in action on the {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop. Andrew Barber was first and checked. The next player checked, Jason Young checked and then the fourth player bet. Barber and Young were the only two callers.

After the {3-Spades} hit the turn, all three remaining players in the hand checked to see the {8-Diamonds} complete the board on the river. Barber bet and Young called. The other player also called.

Barber tabled the {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for a wheel and threes full of deuces. "Gosh, every time you come over here they just make the best hand ever," commented Young. "Make sure you write that... the best hand ever."
