One for Online Legend "lena900”

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Swedish online poker pro Niklas “lena900” Åstedt, who also goes by "tutten7" on 888poker, raised to 1,000 under the gun and the player in the cutoff called. The big blind then three-bet to 4,000, Åstedt called, and the limper came along to make it three-way action to the {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop.

The big blind continued for 6,000, Åstedt called, and the other player got out of the way headed to the {7-Clubs} turn.

The big blind slowed down with a check and folded when Åstedt bet 9,000.

Kevin MacPhee and Bryan Piccioli

Picking up the action after the river of a {j-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} with roughly 12,500 in the pot, Kevin MacPhee bet 6,200 from early position. Bryan Piccioli raised to 16,500 from the next seat over and MacPhee came back over the top to 32,800.

"Wow really? Four-three of spades?" asked Piccioli.

After about five seconds Piccioli called.

MacPhee did in fact table {4-Spades}{3-Spades}, Piccioli showed a defeated {a-Spades}{q-Spades} and MacPhee collected the pot.

Kabrhel Chatting and Collecting

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Martin Kabrhel (from a previous event)
Martin Kabrhel (from a previous event)

Martin Kabrhel seems to be collecting a decent amount of chips at his table as well as staying very chatty to all his opponents.

On a board that read {2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} the dealer started to deal the river card "Keep it black. Small black card" said Kabrhel, including even the dealer into his banter. When the {a-Clubs} fell he admonished the dealer for procuring a high card rather than a low one then bet 7,000. His opponent looked at his hand and mucked fairly quickly to send another pot over to the Czech player.

Kabrhel collected the pot while turning his attention to another player at the table who had not been involved in the pot and promised to bust him before the day was over.

Pringle Doubles Through Boudreau

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

With about 26,000 in the pot and the board reading {k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, Jeff Pringle shoved from early position for 48,300 and sent Kevin Boudreau in the hijack into the tank for a bit before he called.

Pringle showed {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, leading Boudreau's {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

The river was the {8-Hearts}, no help to Boudreau, locking up the pot for Pringle.

Big Blind Special for Tugwell

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

With around 4,000 in the pot on a board of {a-Spades}{2-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, a player in the small blind bet 2,200 and Jeffrey Tugwell raised to 8,500 in the big blind. A third player from early position was in the hand and ended up in the tank for over a minute before letting his hand go.

With action on the player in the small blind, he put in chips to call and quicky mucked his hand after Tugwell turned over the big blind special: {7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, a seven-deuce that had turned into quads.

Conrad Cruising

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Chris Conrad went all in from early position for the last of his 29,800 stack against Howard Mash and another opponent, on a {7-Spades}{j-Clubs}{q-Spades}{4-Clubs} board. Mash, already significantly invested in the pot, tanked for several minutes before making the call. The other player folded, and Conrad and Mash showed down.

Chris Conrad: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Howard Mash: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}

Mash was behind but not out of it, drawing to a spade or a jack. The river fell {5-Diamonds} however, leaving Mash with a depleted 26,500.

A couple of hands later, Conrad took down another big pot, with his {9-Spades}{8-Spades} flopping a straight on a {j-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades} board and holding up for the win. Conrad is now nearing the 100k mark as Level 3 continues.

Dylan Lindsey: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Artem Skakun: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Skakun stayed on the right side of the flip on the {6-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop, but Lindsey picked up the nut flush draw on the {7-Hearts} turn. Lindsey couldn't hit on the {4-Diamonds} river, and Skakun knocked out Lindsey.
