Rhodes Gets the Fold from Daoud with a Massive Flop Bet

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

With the flop showing {10-Spades}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts}, Bradley Rhodes reraised all-in against Steven Daoud's flop bet, putting in all of the remaining 237,000 in his stack. Calling this bet and losing would put Daoud down to about six big blinds, and Daoud went into the tank to contemplate.

After a couple of minutes, Daoud folded, and both players survive on with plenty of chips to work with.

Stein Doubles Through Weiss

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Z Stein opened jammed from the hijack for 48,000 and Josh Weiss called from the cutoff.

Josh Weiss: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Z Stein: {q-Spades}{8-Spades}

Stein needed to pair up but he did better than that as the flop came {8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} giving him a full house.

Weiss needed running aces to win the hand but the turn came the {j-Hearts} and the dealer dropped the meaningless {a-Hearts} on the river.

Cooper Building Nice Stack, Eliminates Calenzo

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Kevin Calenzo started the day with a very healthy stack of 226,00 and had moved all in after a flop of {7-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs} and he was called by Andrew Cooper.

Kevin Calenzo: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Andrew Cooper: {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

Calenzo needed to hit a spade but it didn't happen on the {j-Diamonds} turn nor the {5-Hearts} river and Cooper raked in a massive pot along with another bounty.
