Mohr Catch A Nice River

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Mario Lisojo raised to 30,000 in late position and was called by the player in the big blind and by Todd Mohr in the big blind.
Then on a {10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop, Lisojo bet 30,000 and Mohr check-raised to 100,000.

Lisojo announced all-in for 150,000 and Mohr called.

Mario Lisojo: {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Todd Mohr: {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The turn was a {4-Clubs} and didn't change that much anything, but the river {7-Spades} gave a pair of sevens to Mohr. Lisojo was eliminated.

Greg Da'Mour: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Da'Mour went in ahead and stayed ahead on the {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop. He hit a {10-Diamonds} on the turn to have the small blind drawing to three kings.

Retired NBA Star Paul Pierce Allegedly Won't Pay His Poker Debts

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Paul Pierce
Paul Pierce

Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce owes a poker home game host $180,000, according to a lawsuit filed, but is allegedly refusing to pay it back.

Stephen Carmona, per TMZ Sports, claims he hosted a private game at his house on January 27 and invited the NBA Hall of Famer, who is an avid but recreational poker player. He apparently gave Pierce a $150,000 loan to enter the high-stakes game with the promise of paying it back within seven days.

The lawsuit states that the retired basketball star only returned $10,000 of that money and then borrowed another $40,000 from Carmona to compete in a different game, but allegedly hasn't paid back any of that either. Pierce reportedly made around $200 million in salary and endorsement deals during his 17-year NBA career.

O'Malley Flops Full House

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

In early position, a player opened to 18,000 and on the very next seat, Ken O'Malley called. Then, in late position, Ken Deng made it to 67,000. The two players called.

The flop was {4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}, the first player checked so did O'Malley, before Deng announced all-in. The first player folded but O'Malley snap-called.

Ken Deng: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Ken O'Malley: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

O'Malley flopped the full house and Deng was waiting for only two outs. The turn {a-Clubs} and the river {k-Spades} were not the card expected by Deng. Dealer made the counts and Deng had 281,000, a little less compared to O'Malley, but enough to be officially eliminated.

2009 Seniors Winner Davis Doubles Up

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The player under the gun opened and 2009 WSOP Seniors Champion Michael Davis shoved for his final 119,000 chips. His opponent called.

Michael Davis: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Under the Gun: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The {4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop had Davis way ahead on the flop, going further ahead on the {6-Spades} turn.

The river was the {q-Spades}, which his opponent momentarily thought was a winning card.

However, it was Davis that raked in the pot worth over a quarter of a million chips.

Meanwhile, at the same table, Ben Sarnoff has broken the million-chip plateau. However, at the table next door, James Clarke has 1,100,000 in chips.

Warriner Somehow Doubles Up with Ace-Queen vs. Aces

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Brian Orrico opened from under the gun and Mark Warriner went all in for his last 75,000. Orrico snap-called.

Mark Warriner: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Brian Orrico: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

Orrico got a little help on the {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{q-Clubs} flop but still needed to hit a three-outer.

The {4-Hearts} hit the turn and the {q-Hearts} came on the river, with Warriner clutching his heart and slamming himself back into his seat in amazement.

Orrico volunteered to have his name in the hand history, claiming he would be all over PokerNews if he was featured every time his aces were cracked.
