Lord Tank-Calls Correctly

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante
Kristan Lord
Kristan Lord

Pot-Limit Omaha

Nicholas Julia raised to 160,000 on the button and Kristan Lord called in the big blind. Both checked the {7-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop and Lord then bet the {3-Clubs} turn for 230,000, which Julia called. Lord checked the {k-Hearts} river and Julia bet the pot.

That sent Lord into the tank for more than three minutes and he then called. "You got it," Julia announced without exposing his cards. Lord tabled the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades} and that won the pot.

"It was the same as last time ... I had something," Julia added.

Slow Restart After the Break

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

The usually action-packed Pot-Limit Omaha round brought no action at all and once the game type changed, Nicholas Julia raised the button and Kristan Lord called from the big blind. Lord check-called once on the {j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop and they checked it down on the {9-Diamonds} turn and {6-Spades} river. Lord tabled {5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and that won the pot.

Julia Takes One from Lord

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo

Nicholas Julia: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}/{k-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}/{2-Spades}
Kristan Lord: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}/{3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs}/{8-Diamonds}

The action was joined on fifth street with Julia having tossed out another bet and Lord called.

Sixth street saw the same action.

Seventh street Julia fired once more and Lord made the call. He was shown the bad news when Julia tabled his hole cards and revealed a full house, sevens full of deuces, and Lord tossed his two pairs tens and eights into the muck.

Stud Hi-Lo

Kristan Lord: {x-}{x-} / {9-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs} / {x-}
Nicholas Julia: {x-}{x-} / {7-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Spades}{q-Hearts} / {x-}

Kristan Lord limped and Nicholas Julia checked his option. Lord check-called a bet on fourth and then check-raised fifth for Julia to call.

Lord bet sixth to earn a call and they checked seventh.

Julia announced two pair and tabled the {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for tens and sevens to earn the pot, as Lord only briefly showed his down cards before mucking them.

Seven Card Stud

Nicholas Julia: {x-}{x-} / {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} / {x-}
Kristan Lord: {x-}{x-} / {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} / {x-}

Nicholas Julia bet fifth and then check-called sixth when Kristan Lord bet. He also checked seventh and Lord bet again. That left Julia confused but he eventually called, admitting he had no idea what his opponent had. Julia exposed {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} for just a pair of eights but it was good, as Lord held {k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for a pair of treys.

Nicholas Julia: {x-}{x-} / {5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} / {x-}
Kristan Lord: {x-}{x-} / {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}{k-Hearts} / {x-}

Lord then completed and bet fourth and fifth, which Julia called. They checked sixth, Julia bet seventh and Lord came along. Julia tabled {q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a straight and Lord mucked {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for kings and tens.
