A Five-Bet Jammed Pot Gives Turner a Double

Chad Holloway

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We happened upon the table with the cards already turned up in an all-in preflop situation. All we could piece together was that it was a five-bet jam and Jon Turner, who held the , was all in for 53,700 and well out in front of Niall Farrell's .

The flop paired Turner and left Farrell in dire straits. The turn paired Farrell, but he'd need another five on the river to win the pot. The dealer burned and put out the . Turner doubled on the hand while Farrell, who was left with just 200 in chips, was eliminated in 79th place for $3,117 on the very next hand.

Brutal River Eliminates Ho

Josh_Cahlik

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Ting Ho opened the action with a 3,000-chip raise. It folded around to Tayfun Akbasli on the button who made it 7,500 to go. Action came back around to Ho and she cut out a four-bet to 14,000. Akbasli wasted little time announcing a five-bet all in and Ho heaved a deep breath and announced a call.

Ho:
Akbasli:

Ho was out in the lead and stayed that way when the flop hit the felt. She retained her lead on the turn but when the drilled the river, all of the chips suddenly became Akbasli's.

"Thought you were trying to make a move," said Akbasli to Ho as she gathered her belongings and left the tournament area. Ho had roughly 39,000 more behind, all of which now belong to Akbasli. He's now sitting on about 160,000.
