Reprieve for Visvalingham

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

It was all in on the flop for Vijayarengan Visvalingham and the player on his right. The board read {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and both players committed their chips, though Visvalingham's neighbor was the one at risk. He'd got it in good though, with {q-Spades}{10-Clubs} to Vijayarengan Visvalingham's {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The {7-Hearts} turn and {a-Hearts} river made both players two pair with an ace kicker and the dealer chopped it up.

Full House for Beck

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Robbie Beck was heads up on the river just now with a completed board of {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} on show. He had bet 10,300 into a hefty pot and his opponent re-raised him all in, which he snap-called.

Robbie Beck: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

The Texan's flopped set had filled up on the river and he chips up in the process.

Lee Moves on Semin and Smith

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Three players were in on a {8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop and there was already a sizeable pile of chips in the middle. Mikail Semin (small blind) bet 5,000 and and Mark Smith (big blind) called. Alex Lee was on the button and he moved all in for 37,500. Both Semin and Smith considered calling, each spending a little time in the tank before folding. Lee is still down a little from where he was but he is moving in the right direction.

Bach Finds Help in Three-way All In

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

The flop was out and three players were in the hand with {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{k-Spades} on the board. Andres Garcia and Nikita Luther were in the blinds and they checked to Bach who bet 2,200. Back on Garcia and he raised to 6,500, which Luther flat called. Bach wasn't done betting though, re-raising all in for 33,400. After Garcia called, Luther asked him "what do you have?' before calling as well and the cards were turned over.

David Bach: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Andres Garcia: {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Nikita Luther: {8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

It top two pair vs bottom two pair vs top pair, top kicker but Bach stormed into the lead when an {a-Clubs} fell on the turn. The {10-Hearts} river bricked for his opponents and Garcia hit the rail, whilst Faber was down to just 800 chips. She got it all in the next hand but couldn't spin it up.
