Guillen Finds Another Double

After a player raised to 1,100, Angel Guillen (who we talked a bit about in this post) reraised all in for 4,500. The original raiser called holding the {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Just like last time when he doubled with aces over threes, Guillen held a larger pocket pair with the {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.

The flop, turn and river came {7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Guillen doubled up.

Booth Busts

Brad Booth raised to 900 preflop and was called by one player. The flop came down {10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Booth check-called a bet of 1,500. The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and Booth led for 700. His opponent called. The river was the {A-Spades} and Booth bet 2,300. His opponent called again.

Booth couldn't beat his opponent's {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} and said, " Good call, eight high," before mucking his hand.

Shortly after this hand, which knocked him down to 3,500, Booth was eliminated.
