Zhigalov Takes Frazin Down a Notch with Ladies

Level 30

Hold'em

Timothy Frazin raised the button and Andrey Zhigalov pumped it up with a three-bet. Frazin called and the flop came {k-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. Zhigalov fired and Frazin hooked him up with a call.

The turn fell the {4-Hearts} and Zhigalov showed no signs of slowing down as he quickly put out another bet. Frazin made the call and the {4-Diamonds} landed on the river.

Zhigalov shot another bullet on the river and Frazin snap-called. Zhigalov tabled {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for a rivered full house and Frazin had a look of disgust as he threw his cards in the muck.

Stud Hi-Lo

Andrey Zhigalov: {x-}{x-} / {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Clubs} / {x-}
Bradley Smith: {x-}{x-} / {6-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} / {x-}

Bradley Smith was the bring-in and Andrey Zhigalov completed. After a series of raises between the two players, Smith was all in for 280,000 and the down cards were tabled. Smith held {7-Hearts}{6-Spades} for a pair of sixes while Zhigalov had {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens.

Both players improved to two pair with no low draw heading to seventh street. Smith flipped over the {k-Spades} and he was unable to defeat the bigger two pair of Zhigalov. Smith shook the hands of both of his opponents and headed for the payout desk in third place.

Two Pair for Smith

Level 29

Hold'em

Timothy Frazin raised it up from the small blind and Bradley Smith defended from the big blind. The flop came {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Frazin led out, only to be raised by Smith. Frazin called and the {5-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Frazin check-called another bet from Smith and the {6-Spades} completed the board. Frazin checked one more time and Smith tapped the table behind him. Frazin tabled {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for a missed straight draw and Smith showed {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for two pair.

"How did I lose that hand?" Frazin asked himself. "You called light preflop and then raised me on the flop when it was 50/50."
