Ibanez Rebuilding

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Johann Ibanez raised to 3,500 under the gun and the player from one seat over called along with the cutoff and the big blind.

The flop fell {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{5-Spades} and the big blind checked. Ibanez bet 6,600 and the player from one seat over called along with the cutoff. The big blind check-called as well.

The turn was the {7-Hearts} and the big blind checked. Ibanez continued with a bet of 24,000 that only the big blind called.

The {4-Clubs} filled up the board and both players opted to check. The big blind showed {q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a missed straight and flush draw Ibanez tabled {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds} to rake in the pot with a pair of aces.

A Few Day 2c Casualties

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Hu Still Climbing

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

888 Poker qualifier David Hu is still steadily growing his stack despite losing a small pot just now. The board read {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds} when Hu called a bet of 3,200 from the button. His opponent sat under the gun.

The river was the {5-Diamonds} and both players checked quickly. Hu was shown {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and he couldn't beat that and mucked.

Kay Drops a Big Flip

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player opened in the cutoff for 4,500, Josh Kay made it 14,000 on the button and Gary Dolenga ripped all in for 63,300 in the small blind. The opener mucked but Kay sighed and called after about a minute of thought, showing {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Dolenga had one of the hands he likely hoped to see in {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} but the {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades} board brought all the high cards he didn't want to see, costing him most of his stack.

Hinkle Grinds Down Affleck

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Matt Affleck

Blair Hinkle raised to 5,000 from the button, and Matt Affleck called in the big blind.

Affleck checked the {2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop to Hinkle, who bet 4,000. Affleck called.

On the {8-Hearts} turn, Affleck checked, and Hinkle bet 50,000, more than enough to put Affleck in for his last 20,900. Affleck folded.
