Sixes Good for Gorodinsky

Level 18

Stud

Tommy Hang: {x-}{x-} / {8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} / {x-}
Mike Gorodinsky: {x-}{x-} / {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{j-Clubs} / {x-}

We caught the action on fourth when Hang check-called a bet from Gorodinsky. Both players then checked fifth and Hang led out on sixth. Gorodinsky called and then both players returned to checking on seventh. Gorodinsky tabled the {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a pair of sixes, and it was good as Hang scooped up his cards and then sent them to the muck.

2-7 Triple Draw

Don Nguyen raised from the button and then called a three-bet from Mike Leah in the small blind. Nguyen then drew two after Leah stood pat.

Leah bet, Nguyen raised and Leah three-bet. Nguyen called and then both players stood pat. Leah proceeded to bet all in and Nguyen called. Again both players stood pat.

Leah tabled {9-}{7-}{5-}{3-}{2-} for a nine-seven but it was no good as Nguyen held {8-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{2-} for an eight-six. Leah then peeked at the next card to see what he would have gotten had he broke, but the {Q-} he found wouldn't have helped him.
