Seems Like a Dutch, A Dutch Too Much

Hendrik Alebregtse picked the wrong river to bluff on, it would seem. Against big blind Stanislav Alekhin, he raised preflop then fired 38,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{K-Diamonds} flop, 75,000 on {8-Clubs} turn and finally moved all in on the {J-Spades} river. But the Dutchman was caught and had to show {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for nothing at all, always behind to the Russian's {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs} which had rivered two pair.

Souza's Swan Song

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Ryan Buckholtz raised to 26,000 from middle position and was called by Matt LaGarde from the hijack. Michael Souza then went all in from the button for a total of 157,000. Buckholtz folded but LaGarde decided to call putting Souza at risk.

Souza: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}
LaGarde: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} leaving Souza behind but still with hope, but then the turn brought the {9-Spades} giving LaGarde a boat and leaving Souza drawing dead. The river was a meaningless {q-Hearts} and Souza was eliminated while LaGarde chipped up to 600,000.

Leecy's Stack is Looking Great

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The board was already showing the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} and Christopher Chatman bet out 100,000 from the big blind. Matthew Leecy called and they saw the {2-Hearts} come on the river. Chatman bet 150,000 and Leecy went all in for 244,000 total. Chatman decided to call but mucked his hand after Leecy revealed his {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for tens full of queens.

After the hand Leecy was up to 865,000 while Chatman was left with 140,000.

Leecy Sends Epstein to the Rail

After becoming short-stacked on a recent hand, Epstein's day has now come to an end.

After a flop of {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}, Epstein got the remainder of his chips in holding the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} against Matthew Leecy's {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Epstein's set was leading even after the turn brought the {2-Hearts}, but the {k-Clubs} on the river gave Leecy a straight and sent Epstein to the rail.

Three "J's" All-in

James Waldron, James Matteucci, and Jamal Sawaqdeh ended up all in preflop with Waldron's hand leading the way.

Waldron: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Sawaqdeh: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Matteucci: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The flop came {k-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} putting Matteucci's pair of kings into the lead. The turn and river brought the {3-Hearts} and {8-Diamonds} changing nothing and Matteucci won the pot while Sawaqdeh was eliminated.
