Two Pair for Riesenberg

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Jason Riesenberg raised in early position, the button called before the small blind put in a three-bet. Both Riesenberg and the button called.

The dealer fanned a flop of {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}, the small blind bet, Riesenberg snap-raised, forcing the button to fold and the small blind made the call.

The {a-Clubs} hit the turn and the small blind check-raised, and Riesenberg called.

The {q-Diamonds} completed the board and once checked to, Riesenberg tossed in a bet and was quickly looked up. Riesenberg tabled {a-Spades}{8-Hearts} for two pair, aces and eights and his opponent tossed his cards into the muck.

Picardi Survives Battle With "the Shark"

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Humberto Brenes, sans his trademark shark, was in the big blind and called a raise from Mike Picardi on the button, as did the small blind.

All three players checked the {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop before Picardi bet on the {a-Hearts} turn when action checked to him. Only Brenes called.

The river came the {10-Clubs} and both players checked. Picardi showed the {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for a pair of aces and Brenes could only look back at his cards and tap the felt before conceding the pot.

Campbell, Chaplin, Pimlott Tangle on Back-to-Back Hands

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Four players, including Robert Campbell in middle position, Joseph Chaplin in the small blind, and Bryan Pimlott in the big blind, saw a flop of {9-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Spades}. Campbell bet and got two calls, then Pimlott raised.

Campbell three-bet and both Chaplin and Pimlott called to the {7-Hearts} turn. Pimlott bet out and his opponents called. The river came the {k-Spades}, and this time it was Chaplin who did the betting.

Pimlott leaned back in his chair and folded after some consideration, while Campbell let his hand go more quickly.

A hand later, Campbell raised pre-flop and Chaplain and Pimlott again called. The flop came {j-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and action checked to Chaplain on the button who bet. Both Pimlott and Campbell called.

The turn came the {7-Hearts} and Chaplain bet again. Pimlott called, but Campbell sent his cards back to the dealer. Both players checked the {10-Hearts} river.

Pimlott turned over {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for the rivered full house and Chaplain mucked.

Martinho Catches a Triple Barrel Bluff

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Augie Martinho limped under the gun before the hijack raised. The action folded back around to Martinho who made the call.

On the {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, Martinho check-called a bet from the preflop raiser.

The {3-Hearts} landed on the turn and once checked to, the hijack fired again and Martinho called.

When the {j-Diamonds} completed the board, Martinho check-called for a third time and the hijack chuckled as he said, "you're good," tabling {9-Spades}{8-Spades}. Martinho quickly rolled over {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a pair of aces on the flop and the dealer shipped him the pot.

"Crazy" Mike Fills Up

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

"Crazy" Mike Thorpe just won a pot with a full house, and he did plenty of talking while doing it.

Thorpe bet out on a flop of {3-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Spades} and got one caller. "Did I win yet? Who am I up against?" he said as the turn came the {j-Spades}.

Thorpe bet again and was called. "No spade, no five," he pleaded as the river came another {2-}.

Thorpe put out another bet and his opponent called. "Full house," Thorpe yelled, slamming down {4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

With about 4,300 in the pot, the turn read {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Joseph Dimartino put out a bet before Nicholas Pupillo raised.

Dimartino thought about it for about ten seconds and decided to push his cards into the muck as the dealer shipped the pot to Pupillo.
