Balan turned over {7-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} for the wheel and his opponent flashed the losing hand before tossing it in the muck.

Bohlman's Tank-Call Proves Correct

Level 12

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Heads-up after the draw, the player on the button bet around 4,000 and the decision went on Scott Bohlman in the hijack.

Bohlman tanked for about a minute before putting in the chips to call. His opponent dejectedly turned over {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} for a straight, while Bohlman showed {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} for a 10-low to take the pot.

Stone Can't Beat Campbell

Level 11

Seven Card Stud

Robert Campbell: {x-}{x-}/{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Hearts}/{x-}
Kim Stone: {x-}{x-}/{k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Clubs}/{x-}

Kim Stone called a bet from her nemesis Robert Campbell on fifth street before calling again on sixth.

Campbell put out another bet on seventh and Stone called. Campbell turned over {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a straight, beating Stone's two pair, kings and queens, with {q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}.

"You're the worst," Stone told Campbell, still laughing despite seeing more of her chips vanish into Campbell's massive stack.

Gamble Applies Pressure

Level 11

Big O

Nathan Gamble defended his big blind over a pre-flop raise from the cutoff and saw a flop of {4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}. Gamble checked over to his opponent and then called a bet of 2,200.

The turn came the {9-Spades} and Gamble checked again. The cutoff this time bet 6,000. The two-time bracelet winner asked to see how much his opponent had left before splashing in enough chips to put him all in.

His opponent, with about 12,000 behind, considered the decision for about a minute before giving up the pot.

Greenstein Takes Without Showdown

Level 11

Five Card Draw

Barry Greenstein raised to 1,800 from the button and a player in the big blind called. The big blind drew three and Greenstein took two.

The big blind checked the draw and Greenstein bet 3,000.

"I don't buy it, but I don't have anything," Greenstein's opponent said before he took one more look and tossed his hand in the muck to give the pot to the three-time bracelet winner.

Matusow Scoops Off Woods

Level 10

Badeucy

Mike Matusow and James Woods were involved in a three-way pot from the blinds against a player in the cutoff. They both drew two on the second draw, while their opponent took one.

After all three players checked, Matusow led out after taking one and only Woods called.

Matusow showed {4-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for an eight-low and a three-card Badugi. Woods turned over {6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} for his own, lesser Badugi before giving up the pot to Matusow.
