Chino Rheem Takes Out Isaac Haxton

[user169505]

Chino Rheem threw in the price of a big blind, from late position, the small blind did the same and Isaac Haxton checked his option. The flop was {9-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {2-Hearts} and the action checked to Rheem who bet 14,000. Back to Haxton and he moved all-in for 19,200, Rheem isolated by re-potting it and the small blind took the hint and took a hike.

Rheem
Haxton

So Rheem with two-pair versus the over pair of Haxton. The turn card was the {2-Diamonds} , handing Rheem the boat, and the river {A-Spades} sealed the deal. Haxton was out.

Dutch Boyd: One of the Family

[user169505]

With 2 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets, 20 WSOP cashes and over $1 million in WSOP earnings Dutch Boyd is like one of the family around here. Here he is moving over the century mark with 44 players remaining between him and his third piece of gold.

We joined the action with around 27,000 lying in the pot and two players in the hand (the big blind and Dutch Boyd in the cutoff). The flop was {K-Hearts} {K-Spades} {5-Clubs} and the big blind moved all-in for around a pot-sized bet and Boyd made the call.

Boyd
Big Blind

So Boyd had flopped good and it stayed that way until the bitter end. The turn {8-Hearts} and river {7-Clubs} confirming Boyd's rise to prominence.

Di Donato
Perrins

So Perrins aces are cracked by Di Donato's two pair and the two head off for a sixty-minute dinner break.

Good Call by Dutch Boyd

[user169505]

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Jaspal Brar raised to 7,500 on the button and Dutch Boyd called in the big blind. The action checked through to the turn on a board of {J-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} . It was Brar who started the betting off when he made it 9,000 on the turn and Boyd took his time before calling. The final card was the {4-Clubs} and once more it was Boyd trying to get to showdown and Brar trying his best not too. He bet 18,500 this time and Boyd made the call.

"Good call," said Brar who mucked his hand.

Boyd turned over {K-Clubs} {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} to win the hand. Brar was down to 107,000 and Boyd was up to 175,000.
