Varnell Going Steady

Level 5 : 200/400, 0 ante

Craig Varnell is grinding steadily and has taken down yet another pot, this time with the nuts. The board was {q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and Varnell was holding {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

Unfortunately, his opponent had {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-} and this resulted in an anti-climatic chopped pot.

Varnell has about four times the starting stack of 25,000.

Cakmak Grabs Some Chips

Level 4 : 200/300, 0 ante

A first player limped, followed by Emrah Cakmak before Barny Boatman raised it to 1,500 from the button. His opponents called.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and brought no betting action. A {8-Spades} fell on the turn and this time Cakmak chose to bet 3,800 after a check, which was enough to win the pot as Boatman and the first player folded.

Ylitalo Eliminates Gerhart in Two Hands

Level 4 : 200/300, 0 ante
Kevin Gerhart
Kevin Gerhart

Kevin Gerhart and Robin Ylitalo were involved in a huge four-way all-in on the flop where Gerhart lost all but 3,100. Ylitalo was the big winner in that hand and he had well over 120,000 in front of him.

In the next hand, Ylitalo raised to 800 from middle position and he was called by his neighbor. Gerhart put his last chips in the middle and Ylitalo upped it to 10,400. The third player called as well.

The {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop was dealt and Ylitalo continued with a bet of 10,000 to win the side pot when the other player folded.

Kevin Gerhart: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}
Robin Ylitalo: {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

The turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {6-Clubs} and Ylitalo took it down while he sent Gerhart to the rail.

Schwartz Gets Paid

Level 4 : 200/300, 0 ante

A player raised to 800 in early position and it was called by Noah Schwartz, the cutoff and the big blind.

The flop fell {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and after a check, the initial raiser continued for 1,600, only called by Schwartz. On the turn {j-Spades}, Schwartz's opponent check-called this time for 2,400.

A {q-Hearts} completed the board and after another check, Schwartz potted for 11,400, putting his opponent into a decision. The latter ended up calling but only to muck his cards when Schwartz revealed {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for a full house.
