2-7 Triple Draw

Action folded to Jared Bleznick on the button and he raised. Luke Schwartz three-bet, Bleznick four-bet, and Schwartz went all in for his remaining 106,000.

Both players took two on the first draw and one on the second draw. Schwartz stood pat on the final draw and Bleznick checked his final card before standing pat behind him.

"You win, I guess," said Schwartz.

Bleznick tabled {8-}{7-}{5-}{3-}{2-} and Schwartz buried his cards deep into the dealer's muck pile to his immediate left and got up from his seat.

No-Limit Hold'em Fun Between Bleznick and Sammartino

Level 16 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Dario Sammartino and Jared Bleznick were heads up in a pot from the cutoff and button, respectively with around 170,000 in the pot leading to a flop of {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Sammartino check-called a bet of 80,000 from Bleznick. The turn came {4-Clubs} and Sammartino checked again. Bleznick counted out his stack and announced he was all in. Sammartino asked for a count which totaled 324,000 and he let his hand go.

On the following hand, Sammartino and Bleznick were again involved in a pot on a flop of {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} from the hijack and cutoff, respectively. Sammartino bet 26,000 and Bleznick raised to 75,000. Sammartino peeled and the two checked through the {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} runout. Sammartino announced a three and Bleznick nodded.

Sammartino then tabled {q-Spades}{3-Spades} which proved to be the winning hand as Bleznick mucked.

On the third consecutive hand, Bryce Yockey open-limped on the button and Sammartino completed his small blind. Bleznick raised to 36,000 and Yockey called before Sammartino raised to 145,000 and took down the pot preflop when both players folded.

Esposito Goes Through a Roller Coaster of Emotions

Level 16 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Talal Shakerchi limped in from the button, Andrew Brown limped in from the small blind, and John Esposito checked his option in the big blind.

Brown led for 18,000 on the {10-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop, and Esposito raised to 90,000. Shakerchi folded.

"You'll never miss it," Esposito crooned at Brown, who eventually called.

Brown bet enough to put Esposito at risk for his last 204,000 on the {j-Hearts} turn, and Esposito tank-called.

"Just a draw," Brown said, to which Esposito replied, "You're drawin' pretty slim."

Andrew Brown: {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
John Esposito: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

"Thank you very much," Esposito said after the {10-Hearts} river fell.

"Flush," Brown replied, prompting a quick, "Oh my God!" and a fist slam on the table from Esposito. He looked at the board again then said, "I have a full house!" with his ace-ten, which earned the relieved Esposito a double.
