Depa's Check-Raise Convinces Opponent

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Jonathan Depa opened the action with a raise from the cutoff to 1,500. The player on the button three-bet to 5,000 and Depa called.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{k-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Depa checked to his opponent, who fired a continuation-bet of 4,000. Depa put in a check-raise to 12,500 and his opponent tossed his hand away as Depa took down the pot and added to his stack.

"It All Means the Same"

Arlie Shaban
Arlie Shaban

A player raised to 1,500 from the cutoff, and Arlie Shaban three-bet to 6,000 in the big blind.

"I knew you were gonna do that...what's that mean?" Shaban's opponent asked.

"It all means the same," a very zen Shaban responded. Eventually, Shaban's opponent folded his {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} face-up, and Shaban showed his opponent the {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}.

Hougaard's Flopped Top Pair Not Enough

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

David Lolis raised to 1,200 in late position and Jesper Hougaard called in the cutoff, as did the small blind.

The flop landed {8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and action checked to Hougaard who bet 2,100. The small blind and Lolis called before the turn fell the {3-Spades}.

The small blind now led out for 4,800, and after Lolis folded, Hougaard called as the {a-Spades} checked through on the river.

The small blind tabled his {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, and Hougaard flashed the {9-Clubs} and then mucked.
