Fhima Stays Alive

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Kyle Bowker opened for 11,000 under the gun and Timo Pfutzenreuter called. Action then folded around to David Fhima in the small blind and he moved all in for 59,000. The big blind folded, Bowker called, and Pfutzenreuter got out of the way.

Fhima: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Bowker: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Bowker had been in a similar situation multiple times today, though he was the player with the better pair in those encounters. Even so, on more than one occasion the smaller pair found a set, so Bowker was hoping it was his turn to get lucky.

Unfortunately for him, that didn't happen as the board ran out a clean {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Fhima was pushed the pot.

Bad Beat Sends Duhamel to the Rail

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Jonathan Duhamel
Jonathan Duhamel

Jay Conley opened for 11,000 from early position and action folded around to 2010 World Series of Poker champ Jonathan Duhamel, who shoved all in from the small blind for 116,000. Conley called.

Duhamel: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Conley: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Duhamel got it in as a big favorite, but Conley got lucky to hit a set on the {2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. The {J-Hearts} turn gave Duhamel a gutshot straight draw, but he missed when the {6-Spades} blanked on the river. Duhamel will take home $12,847 for his 37th-place finish.

Ante: 1,000

Kindred Spirits

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Dan O'Brien raised from the cutoff only to have Justin Kindred three-bet all in for 86,000 from the button. The blinds both folded and O'Brien gave it considerable thought before making the call, which he likely regretted upon seeing the cards.

Kindred: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
O'Brien: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

O'Brien was dominated, and he paid the price as Kindred doubled through after the board ran out {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}.

Busquet Doubles

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded to Jim Collopy in the small blind, and he raised all in. Olivier Busquet called all in from the big blind for 61,000, putting himself at risk with the {K-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. Collopy had the {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Busquet doubled up, leaving Collopy with 54,000 in chips.

"It Keeps Getting Better"

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Jay Conley opened for 13,000 from the hijack and Jose Garcia called him from the cutoff. Kirill Rabtsov then three-bet all in from the button for 99,000, Conley folded, and Garcia thought for a bit before dropping in a call.

Rabtsov: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Garcia: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}

Garcia was in a dominating position, but not after the flop came down {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Not only did Rabtsov pair his king, he picked up a flush draw to boot. That flush came in when the dealer burned and turned the {4-Diamonds}, which left Garcia drawing dead. The meaningless {9-Diamonds} was put out on the river for good measure and Rabtsov was pushed the double.
