One Pair Scoops for Wong

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Jerry Wong led the betting three ways against Adam Friedman and Joe Tehan, picking up {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} on fourth street and then Broadways on fifth and sixth.

Wong: {x-}{x-}/{a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}/{x-}
Friedman: {x-}{x-}/{3-Spades}{8-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}/{x-}
Tehan: {x-}{x-}/{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}/{x-}

On the river, Wong studied his opponents' boards for about 15 seconds. Finally, he checked. The others quickly checked behind him and he announced aces. Friedman pointed at him and Tehan shook his head, so Wong opened {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and scooped it with one pair.

Mercier and Seidel Chop Up Trincher's Last Chips

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

There was already a pile of chips in the middle, about 50,000, and Illya Trincher was all in on fourth street against Jason Mercier and Erik Seidel.

Trincher: {x-}{x-}/{3-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Mercier: {x-}{x-}/{q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Seidel: {x-}{x-}/{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}

Seidel took the betting lead from there in the side pot, as Jason Mercier called down.

Trincher: {x-}{x-}/{3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}/{x-}
Mercier: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}/{q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Seidel: {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades}/{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Clubs}

"Seven-low?" Trincher confirmed after Seidel showed.

Indeed it was, with Mercier showing down a set of jacks. Trincher could beat neither and headed for the rail.

Painter Can't Quite Scoop

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Qinghai Pan bet sixth street into Shane Douglas and Jameson Painter, who both called.

Pan: {x-}{x-}/{5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Douglas: {x-}{x-}/{q-Spades}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Painter: {x-}{x-}/{5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

On the river, action checked to Painter. He bet and both opponents quickly called. Painter announced a flush and an eight-seven, showing {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. No doubt he was hoping for a scoop but Pan showed a better low with {a-}{4-} and grabbed half of the pot.
