Martin Hits The Rail

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Jesse Martin raised to 4,200 from late position and the player in the cutoff reraised to 12,000. Martin weighed his options and moved all in for 44,300 and the player in the cutoff called having Martin covered.

Martin: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Cutoff: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Martin was not happy to see an ace on the {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop and couldn't find anything on the {8-Clubs} turn. The {a-Hearts} river added insult to injury and Martin is gone.

Bardah Busts

Weisner Takes A Hit

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Melanie Weisner
Melanie Weisner

Melanie Weisner raised to 3,500 in late position. The player on the button reraised all in for 25,800 and Weisner called.

Weisner: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Button: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Weisner was ahead but that didn't last long as her opponent found a queen on the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Spades} flop. There was no relief on the {7-Spades} turn or {6-Diamonds} river and Weisner lost a good portion of her stack. Weisner would end up busting a few hand later.

Frustration Sets In

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

A player under the gun limped and faced a 5,000 raise from Marc-Andre Ladouceur, in middle position. When action folded back to the player, he made the call.

Both players checked every street of the {4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}{5-Diamonds} board. The player under the gun turned over {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and you could see the frustration on Ladouceur's face.
