Turn and River Delight Deluca

Level 12
Joseph Deluca
Joseph Deluca

Pot-Limit Omaha

Some big-bet poker to report, as we've just seen a couple of big pot-limit Omaha hands over at Table 407.

The first hand saw a three-way all-in situation develop involving Joseph Deluca, Steve Zolotow, and Sergii Baranov. The board showed {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, and the players' cards revealed the following:

Deluca: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} — sixes and fives
Zolotov: {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} — open-ended straight draw
Baranov: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} — open-ended straight draw, kings

The turn brought the {J-Diamonds} and the river the {6-Hearts}, delivering a backdoor full house to Deluca to win him the big pot and push his stack up close to 100,000. Meanwhile, Zolotov was knocked out and Baranov cut down to less than 10,000.

Baranov was then all in shortly thereafter with {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} versus Scotty Nguyen's {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}. The board came {8-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, giving Baranov quads and continued life in the tournament.

Assorted Counts

Level 12

Dang Scoops Smith

Level 12

Omaha-8

Howard Smith and Trai Dang came into this second day of play at the top of the counts, although both have slid a bit during the first three-and-a-half levels of play. The pair were seated together at the same table today and have played several hands against one another, including an Omaha-8 hand just now.

The pair had reached the river with Dang having bet or raised and Smith contemplating a call. The board showed {3-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, and after a lengthy think Smith set out the calling chips.

Dang immediately tabled {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{2-Spades}. "Good hand," said Smith, as he looked over Dang's cards. "Ace-deuce," he said, referring to Dang's 7-4-3-2-A low. "And you've got the jack," he added, referring to Dang's high hand of trip jacks.

George Knocks Out Two, New Leader

Level 12
Konstantin Bucherl
Konstantin Bucherl

Stud

Christopher George has catapulted into the chip lead here at the start of Level 12, having earned a big boost to his stack after scoring a double-knockout in a stud hand.

The hand saw Konstantin Bucherl all in by third street, then another player all in by sixth. With the second all-in, everyone's cards were revealed:

Bucherl: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} / {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} — sixes, flush draw
second all-in player: {4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} / {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades} — flush draw
George: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds} / {3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{K-Hearts} — full house

George's hand made the others' draws inconsequential, so when Bucherl filled his flush it didn't help him as he and the other player hit the rail. Meanwhile George is now up over 140,000, the biggest stack in the room at present.

Cassidy Bests Williamson

Level 12

Omaha-8

Robert Williamson III limped from under the gun and it folded around to Joe Cassidy who raised from the small blind. Steven Wolansky called out of the big blind and the three players saw a flop of {5-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{K-Spades}. Cassidy and Wolansky checked over to Williamson who fired out a bet. Cassidy called while Wolansky threw away his hand.

The {6-Diamonds} hit the turn and Cassidy check-called once again. Fifth street brought the {9-Hearts} and both players tapped the table. Cassidy showed {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and his pocket aces held as the best hand, allowing him to drag in the pot. He's now sitting around 29,000 while Williamson has just about 6,500 in front of him.

Eighty-Six For Raymer

Level 11

2-7 Triple Draw

We picked up with the action just after the first draw to find Greg Raymer lead out with a bet. Jameson Painter raised and Raymer flat called. Raymer drew one card on the second draw while Painter stood pat. Raymer checked after the second draw and Painter continued out.

Raymer surprised Painter with a raise here and Painter flat called. Both stood pat on the third draw and Raymer bet out one more time. Painter called but mucked his hand when Raymer fanned {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for an eighty-six. The 2004 WSOP Main Event champion dragged in the pot and now has about 47,000 in chips.

Straight in Stud for Buchanan

Level 11

Stud

Jie Zhang picked up a jack on fifth street, giving him a pair showing with {2-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}, and he bet. His lone opponent, Shawn Buchanan, was showing {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and he raised, and Zhang called.

Zhang drew the {9-Spades} on sixth, and check-called a bet from Buchanan who'd been dealt the {K-Diamonds}. Zhang check-called again on seventh, taking about a half-minute before doing so.

At that Buchanan tabled {10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{A-Hearts} — he'd made a ten-high straight — and Zhang mucked.

Four Aces for Singer

Level 11

Stud

We came on a seven-card stud hand between Robert Williamson III and David Singer that had reached seventh street, with Singer having fired a bet and Williamson sitting in contemplation. Their boards…

Singer: {x-}{x-} / {6-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} / {x-}
Williamson: {x-}{x-} / {Q-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} / {x-}

Williamson finally called, and Singer spoke up. "Four aces," he said, revealing his down cards as {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{10-Spades}, and Williamson mucked.

Another Razz Pot For Clements

Level 11

Razz

Scott Clements{x-}{x-} / {3-}{k-}{10-}{5-} / {x-}
Tom McCormick{x-}{x-} / {4-}{3-}{4-}{2-} / {x-}

Picking up with the action on fourth street, we saw Tom McCormick fire out a bet. Scott Clements called to see fifth and both players checked. McCormick led out once again on sixth street and Clements called to see the final card.

Both players checked on seventh street and McCormick tabled {10-}{9-}{7-} for a ninety-seven low. Clements showed a better hand, however, with {8-}{7-}{2-}. Clements' eighty-seven was enough to take down the pot and boost his stack to around 22,000.
