Eshkar's Big Slick Finds Help to Oust Cowboys

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Eyal Eshkar had an opponent all-in and at risk preflop for his opponent's 48,000 chips.

Opponent: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Eyal Eshkar: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Both players had hands destined to get it in but Eshkar was looking for some help. He found it as the dealer spread the {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop. The {10-Diamonds} turn left his opponent drawing to the case king, and the {8-Hearts} completed the board to send Eshkar the pot and eliminate his opponent.

D'Ambrosio Turns Set of Queens to Oust Opponent

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

With about 25,000 in the pot and a {j-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{q-Spades} board, the small blind checked and Jimmy D'Ambrosio bet 20,000 from the hijack. The small blind continued to the river.

The {k-Diamonds} came on the river and the small blind checked once more. D'Ambrosio jammed to put his opponent to the test.

"I'm probably not folding", said the small blind player.

Indeed, he called off the rest of his stack and hands were revealed.

Small Blind: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Jimmy D'Ambrosio: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The small blind rivered two pair but it was no good as D'Ambrosio turned a set of queens to add to his stack.

Shannon Shorr
Shannon Shorr

Shannon Shorr raised from the cutoff and was called by Jan Bednar from the button, along with the big blind player.

The {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} flop was checked to Shorr who continued for 4,000 and only Bendar called to see the {9-Diamonds} fall on the turn.

Both players checked and the dealer completed the board with the {4-Spades} on the river.

Shorr thought for a few moments and then tossed out uncontested 16,500 bet to win the pot.
