Stout Reels in the Chips

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Michael Rocco limped in the cutoff. Matt Stout raised to 2,200 on the button to which Rocco called.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Rocco checked to the preflop aggressor before raising Stout's 2,500 continuation bet to 6,000. Stout called.

The {q-Spades} led to the action slowing down on the turn as both players checked.

The river was the {9-Hearts} and Rocco fired for 2,000. Stout wanted to play for all the chips and pushed all in. Rocco went into the tank for two minutes before folding.

Deeb Shoves With Kings

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Freddy Deeb was in the big blind, and pushed all-in for 6,500. Only a player in middle position called, and Deeb's tournament life was at stake.

Freddy Deeb {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Deeb was in the lead with the better pocket pair, and didn't have to sweat much on the {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop.

The turn was the {2-Diamonds}, and the river {6-Clubs}.

Deeb doubled up with a laugh, and stacked his chips smiling.
