David Chiu saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} along with two other players. After a bet and three raises, all three players stuck around to see the dealer turn the {5-Clubs}. Chiu bet out, and both other players called, then all three checked the {a-Clubs} on the river.

The first player instantly pushed his cards toward the muck, then Chiu turned over {10-}{10-}. The other played mucked, and Chiu raked in the pot, bring his stack to 20,500.

Two Pair for Kuether

Level 2 : 200/400, 0 ante

Action folded around to the player in the cutoff and he raised to 400. Joe Kuether then three-bet to 600 from the button, the blinds folded and the cutoff made the call.

The cutoff proceeded to check-call bets on every street as the board ran out {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} only to muck when Kuether rolled over the {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for two pair.

Level: 3

Limits: 300/600

Ante:

"I Don't Have It."

Level 3 : 300/600, 0 ante

Daniel Negreanu and J.J. Liu saw the flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. Negreanu check-called Liu's bet, and then did so again when the dealer turned the {2-Clubs}. The {5-Clubs} fell on the river, and Negreanu checked again. When Liu bet, Negreanu simply said, "I don't have it," and mucked his cards.

As Liu was stacking her newly-earned chips, Negreanu said he had a lot of outs, including an open-ended straight draw and maybe just a king. He added, afterward, that he held {k-}{j-}. Despite not hitting his numerous outs, Negreanu still had 25,000 in front of him after the hand, while Liu is now up to 19,000.

Monnette Applies Pressure

Level 3 : 300/600, 0 ante

Jeff Lisandro opened with a preflop raise and John Monnette made it three bets from the seat next door. It folded around to Lisandro and he called.

The dealer produced a flop of {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Lisandro checked to the raiser. Monnette continued out and Lisandro called the bet. The {A-Hearts} hit the turn and Lisandro checked once again. Monnette fired and Lisandro went into the tank for about twenty seconds before releasing his cards. Monnette picked up the pot and now has about 13,500.
