Terry Doesn't Need a Showdown

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante
Todd Terry

When we walked up to table Gold 14 in the Brasilia Room, Toddy Terry had already checked the {Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop from the small blind. The big blind had bet out 2,500 and the player under the gun had made the call. Terry announced all in and shoved his stack of about 16,000 forward. The big blind, who appeared to have about 7,000 behind, took some time but folded. The other player took about as much time, and folded as well with only a little over 5,000 behind.

Jaka Loses a Flip

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Faraz Jaka opened for a raise in the cutoff, and an opponent on the button shoved for around 5,000. Jaka made the call.

Jaka: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Button: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The flop was {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, keeping Jaka in the lead but adding outs to his opponent's hand. An {a-Diamonds} on the turn left Jaka in bad shape, and he didn't improve on the river.

Unavoidable Situation for Moorman

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante
Chris Moorman got coolered.
Chris Moorman got coolered.

Chris Moorman on the button, and his neighbor in the cut off, just got all their chips in pre flop. Moorman was already short with about 4,400 in chips, and must have been excited to see {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. His opponent had that one hand that is better than kings though: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}. Moorman was already halfway gone before the river was dealt, and rightfully so: {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts} | {10-Spades} | {6-Hearts}.

Five Bet Gets it Done

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

In a hand where there appeared to be a dead button, the cut off made it 600 to go. From the small blind David Baker three bet to 1,750 and the big blind folded. Action back to the cut off who bumped it up to 3,100 but that wasn't the end of it for Baker. He made it 4,750 and his opponent folded rather quickly.
