Mike Doubles Through Tam

Omaha-8

Lori Berumen was in early position when she opened up the pot with a raise. Mike Krescanko called on the button and so too did Tam Hang in the big blind.

The {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{k-Clubs} flop would see Hang check, Berumen check and Krescanko bet on the button. Hang then check-raised and Berumen got out of the way. Krescanko then committed the rest of his chips and the two players turned their hands over.

Krescanko: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Hang: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The {5-Clubs} turn and the {j-Hearts} river would ensure Krescanko managed the double up.

Chad and Phillips Chop Epstein

Stud-8

Dale Phillips{x-}{x-} / {8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs} / {x-}
Scott Epstein{x-}{x-} / {9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{2-Clubs} / {x-}
Lori Berumen{x-}{x-} / {6-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{k-Spades} / {x-}
Norman Chad{x-}{x-} / {6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts} / {x-}

When we reached the table, Epstein was all in, and the action was on seventh street. Chad bet, Phillips called, and Berumen tank-folded.

Norman Chad tabled {a-}{6-}{5-} for a seventy-six low, Phillips tabled {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for two pair, and all Epstein had was two concealed jacks.

Epstein is eliminated, while Chad and Phillips have chipped above 100,000.

Bari Binks a Double

Stud-8

When we arrived at Table 449, Daniel Ratigan and Allen Bari were involved in a hand and Bari was all in. It was already at showdown by the time we got there, with Bari's {k-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades} (in no particular order) out on the felt. Ratigan's cards were going into the muck and Bari was raking in the double up.
