More River Bets Uncalled

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Zachary Clark raised from under the gun to 1,325. The player in the next seat called and then Nick Schulman called out of the big blind. The flop came down {8-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} and everyone checked to see the {10-Diamonds} roll off on the turn. Action was checked by Schulman and then by Clark to the third opponent. That player fired 3,000 and took down the pot.

Schulman Drops One

Nick Schulman raised from under the gun to 1,300. A player in middle position gave him some action with a call and the flop came down {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Both players checked and the turn brought the {5-Clubs} to pair the board. Both players checked again.

The river was the {J-Hearts} and Schulman was still checking to his opponent. This time the player didn't check behind and bet 2,600. Schulman gave it up and saw his chip stack get a little bit smaller.

Obrestad Check-Shoves Her Way to Chips

Annette Obrestad, Jordan Morgan and Steven Levy took the flop of {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} with between 10,000 and 15,000 in the middle. Obrestad was first up and checked. Morgan bet 7,100 and Levy called. Obrestad was back up and check-raised all in for 33,625. Morgan quickly folded, but Levy didn't let go so easily. He tanked and tanked, but in the end found himself mucking his cards.

Brady Doubles, Fish Out

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Matt Brady just doubled up through Darryll Fish to moved to about 40,000 in chips. He held pocket queens and Fish's hand was unknown. What matters though is that the queens held for Brady.

Fish was left with just 75 chips and was eliminated on the next hand.

William's Top Set Finds No Action

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

A player in early position raised to 1,200 and David Williams re-raised two seats over to 3,500. The action folded back to the original raiser who made the call.

The flop came {Q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{10-Spades} and the player in early position checked. Williams fired out 4,700 and his opponent folded.

"It's not like I had anything," Williams said as he rolled over {Q-}{Q-}.

Williams is now up to 60,000.
