Rivered Double for Rusnak

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Frank Rusnak open-shoved from early position for 256,000 and Cary Katz made the call from a few spots over.

Rusnak: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Katz: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Rusnak was in bad shape until the board was spread {K-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to see him spike a two-outer on the river to double to over 550,000 as Katz slipped to below 400,000 in chips.

Katz Bests Lemke with Boat

From early position, Cary Katz raised to 50,000. Brian Lemke made the call from the big blind and the flop was {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. Both players checked to see the {3-Diamonds} fall on the turn. Both checked again.

The {Q-Hearts} put a third lady out on the river and Lemke checked. Katz fired 25,000 and Lemke made the call.

Katz showed the {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a full house, queens full of nines, and won the pot. Lemke mucked.

Fohrenbach Pressures Ho

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Maria Ho
Maria Ho

Action folded to Maria Ho in the small blind and she put in a raise. Ho made it 60,000 to go with only Ricky Fohrenbach to act in the big blind. Fohrenbach studied Ho and her stack before reraising all in. Ho had 462,000 behind and tanked for a bit. She eventually mucked her hand and Fohrenbach won the pot.
