Hollman Wins One

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

Rick Hollman raised to 400 on the cutoff and Bobby Altman called from the small blind along with Jonas Mackoff in the big blind.

A flop reading {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs} was dealt and checked to Hollman who fired 700. Altman and Mackoff check-called.

The {k-Diamonds} turn was checked around to the {10-Diamonds} river. Altman and Mackoff checked once more. Hollman threw in a bet of 2,500, and Altman and Mackoff gave up their hands.

"I folded two pair," commented Altman.

"If we all folded two pair, you must have had a queen," said Mackoff to Hollman.

Eights Are Good for Yaroshevskyy

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

Igor Yaroshevskyy raised to 300 on the button and Jean Fontaine, on the button, three-bet to 900.

The dealer spread a flop of {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Yaroshevskyy checked it to Fontaine who bet 800. Yaroshevskyy check-called.

The turn brought the {j-Spades} and was checked through to the {6-Hearts} river. Again, both players opted to check. Yaroshevskyy tabled {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} to win the pot and Fontaine showed {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} before sending his hand to the muck.
