Vogelsang Saved by Minkin

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Kelly Minkin opened to 18,000 from middle position and Tom Vogelsang shipped all in for 38,000 on the button. Adedapo Ajayi called from the small blind as did Minkin. The flop came {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and both remaining players checked to the {9-Spades} on the turn.

Ajayi led out for 25,000 this time and Minkin called to see the {3-Hearts} on the river. Ajayi checked and Minkin stuck in a bet of 100,000. Ajayi laid his hand down and Minkin tabled {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} to collect the side pot. Vogelsang quickly rolled over his {4-Spades}{4-Hearts} which was good enough for the main pot.

"You're lucky there was a side pot to play for," Minkin said as she forced Ajayi off the best hand.

Blomberg Sends Lopez to the Payout Desk

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Showing up on the river with the board reading {9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and a big pot already brewed, Colton Blomberg had moved all-in and Mario Lopez was in the tank with 10-seconds left to act after the clock had been called. With about two seconds left, he put a stack of chips across the line to call and tabled {a-}{2-} for two pairs aces and twos, but was shown the bad news when Blomberg tabled {a-}{9-} for a bigger two pair, aces and nines.

On the very next hand Boatman opened and another player called. Boatman check-called a bet on the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{a-Spades} flop and another bet for 26,000 on the {8-Spades} turn.

The river was the {3-Clubs}. Boatman bet 50,000 and his opponent played with his chips.

"If you raise it's a really bad act," said Boatman.

"I just think you have the exact same hand as the last hand," said his opponent. "And I'm definitely beating tens." He called.

"Close," said Boatman, showing {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} for aces full and his opponent flashed {j-}{j-} on the way to the muck.
