Lenders Shoves

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

A player opened to 800 and Trevor Lenders decided to three-bet to 1,700 in the cutoff. It folded back to the first player who called after some consideration.

The flop landed {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and it was checked to Lenders who announced all in for 16,000. His opponent thought about it for a minute, but eventually folded. Lenders showed {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} to the table.

Queens Hold for DeVore

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

On a heads-up board of {2-Spades}{j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, Sundiata DeVore decided to put the rest of his stack of 11,000 into the already large pot of 10,000.

His opponent took a couple of seconds, but then called the bet, putting himself at risk as the cards were tabled.

At-risk player: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
DeVore: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

After being shown the bad news, DeVore's opponent tapped the table and stood up as the meaningless {3-Diamonds} landed on the river to eliminate him.

DeVore raked in the pot to boost his chip count to 31,000.
