Mossey Felts a Foe

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Molly Mossey
Molly Mossey

Action folded around to Molly Mossey in the hijack and she raised to 800. The cutoff three-bet jammed for what looked like about 5,500, the button and blinds got out of the way, and after brief consideration, Mossey called to put the cutoff at risk.

Molly Mossey: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The two players were racing and Mossey needed to improve to win. She paired her ace on the {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop to take the lead, the {J-Spades} turn and {3-Clubs} river changed nothing, so Mossey took the pot to stack her opponent.

Calling the Clock With the Brains Behind the Scene of RG

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante

Calling the Clock With the Brains Behind the Scene of RG - Real Grinders Eric Shimp gives us an 88 second glimpse into the brain power behind the new fad. What is Eric like away from his poker business and does he know the different types of Australian alcohol? Who was his biggest crush and what music does he like? Calling the clock is powered by 888 poker and this time it's a business leader. Will he understand the Aussie language and Danielle's accent while his 88 seconds ticks down?

Zarin Cracks Kings

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Jonathan Zarin just informed the PokerNews Live Reporting team that he was recently involved in a hand in which a player raised to 900 from late position, the button shoved for his last 2,600, and Zarin moved all-in for his last 2,800. The button turned up with {K-}{K-}, and Zarin, who held {K-}{Q-}, needed a lot of help from the deck in order to win the pot. The board ran out {A-}{J-}{5-}{5-}{10-} to give him Broadway, so he took the pot to stack his opponent.

Liebert's Ace Is Best

Level 8 : 250/500, 75 ante

Action folded to Kathy Liebert in the cutoff and she raised to 1,200. Both blinds called.

The flop came {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades} and both blinds checked. Liebert bet 2,000, the small blind called, and the big blind folded.

The turn brought the {K-Diamonds} and the small blind bet 2,000. Liebert called.

The {J-Hearts} fell on the river and both players checked. The small blind tabled {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} but Liebert showed {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} to win the pot.

"Ace deuce?" a player asked.

"Not ace deuce. Aces with king, jack, and ten kickers," Liebert replied.
