Stein Finds a Set

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

A short-stacked Sam Stein got his last 50,000 or so all in preflop holding the {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} only to run into the {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} of Kyle Bowker. Stein was on the verge of elimination, but lady luck smiled on him by delivering him a set on the {6-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop. Neither the {4-Diamonds} turn nor {A-Clubs} river was the nine Bowker was looking for, and he sent some chips over to Stein.

Five-Way Pot for Froehlich

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

From middle position, Ludovic Riehl raised to 10,500. Michael Rocco called from the hijack seat, Sylvain Loosli called from the cutoff seat, Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi called from the small blind, and Eric Froehlich called from the big blind.

All five players saw the flop come down {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}, and everyone checked to see the {2-Spades} land on the turn. Mizrachi led for 21,000, Froehlich called, Riehl called, Rocco folded, and Loosli folded.

On the river, the remaining three players saw the river come the {10-Hearts} to pair the board. Everyone checked.

"Two pair," announced Mizrachi with an emphatic tone. Before he could table his cards, though, Froehlich turned over the {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a straight. Riehl and Mizrachi mucked, and Froehlich won the pot.

Kerr Exits Gracefully After Bad Beat

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

We missed the preflop action, but we do know a big three-way all in just went down between Ludovic Riehl, Steven Kerr and Eric Froehlich. Froehlich was all in for 49,000, Kerr for 62,500, and Riehl had them both covered.

Froehlich: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Kerr: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Riehl: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Kerr was ahead with his queens, and he stayed there on the {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop. Kerr was clearly nervous as he was on his feet sweating the hand, and that is when disaster struck. The dealer burned and turned the {A-Clubs}, which gave Froehlich, who had started with the worst hand, the lead with two pair and Riehl the lead in the side pot.

The {J-Clubs} river filled Froehlich up, and he tripled on the hand. Meanwhile, Riehl eliminated Kerr, who finished in 47th place, but not before shaking hands with everyone remaining at the table.
