Kellsall Takes O'Hara for a Wild Ride

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo

Andrew Kelsall was the bring in and Jeff Madsen completed. Ian O'Hara made it two-bets and Kelsall and Madsen both called.

Andrew Kelsall: {x-}{x-}/{3-Hearts}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}/{x-}
Ian O'Hara: {x-}{x-}/ {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts} / {x-}
Jeff Madsen: {x-}{x-}/ {5-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} — Folded on fifth

Kelsall bet on fourth and was called by both players. He bet again on fifth and was called by only O'Hara this time. Kelsall continued with bets on sixth and seventh and O'Hara called both times. Kelsall showed down his {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for two pair and a seven-low and that allowed him to scoop the pot, chipping him up over 10,000.

Glantz Eliminated

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

Razz

Valentin Vornicu bet on fourth street and both players called. Glantz bet on fifth street after taking the lead, forcing one player out and Vornicu called. Glantz bet again on sixth street and Vornicu called.

Player 1: {x-}{x-}/{9-}{k-}{a-} - folded on fifth
Valentin Vornicu: {x-}{x-}/{a-}{8-}{10-}{q-}/{x-}
Matt Glantz: {x-}{x-}/{8-}{7-}{a-}{10-}/{x-}

Both players checked seventh street. Glantz showed {5-}{7-}{q-} for a ten-eight low, and Vornicu showed {5-}{6-}{8-} for a marginally better ten-eight.

Then, in the next hand, after an open and a call Glantz moved all in. Chad Campbell called bets on fourth and fifth street from the third player in the hand, but Campbell's opponent check-folded on sixth street.

Player 1: {x-}{x-}/{9-}{a-}{k-}{5-} - folded on sixth street
Chad Campbell: {x-}{x-}/{a-}{a-}{3-}{2-}/{x-}
Matt Glantz: {x-}{x-}/{9-}{q-}{k-}{7-}/{x-}

With Glantz all in, seventh street was dealt and Campbell turned over {2-}{4-}{6-}. Glantz announced two pair showing just {k-}{q-}, and was eliminated.

Two Sets for Josephy, Both Good

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante
Cliff Josephy
Cliff Josephy

Pot-Limit Omaha

A player limped in under the gun before another raised to pot, making it 900. Cliff Josephy was on the button and he tagged along as did the under the gun limper.

The flop was {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and all three players checked. They checked again on the {7-Hearts} turn.

On the {8-Clubs} river, action checked to Jospehy who put out a bet of 500 and was called by just the under the gun player.

"I have two sets," Josephy said.

"Both are good," his opponent responded.

Josephy then slapped over his {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and he collected the pot.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Catching the action on a flop of {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Jeff Madsen and Marco Johnson each had 800 worth of bets in front of them when Madsen led out on the flop. Johnson called.

The turn was the {A-Hearts} and Madsen led out again and Johnson called.

Madsen bet once more on the {Q-Clubs} river and Johnson called again, but Madsen showed him the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a full house and Johnson just mucked his hand, allowing Madsen to take down yet another pot.
