Gregg Eliminated by Bohlman

Level 13 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

The cards were all but rushed away when Anthony Gregg vaulted out of his chair as he had been running out of chips and the pot was pushed to Scott Bohlman in the big blind.

On a board of {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, Gregg had flopped best with {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{q-}{x-Clubs} for a set of queens according to Julien Martini while Bohlman had {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{5-}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of aces that rivered the nut flush.

Smith Gets Extra With Check-Raise on Williams

Level 13 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Limit Omaha 8 or Better

With approximately 100,000 in the pot on a turn board of {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, Dan Smith checked from early position to David Williams on the button, who put out a bet. Smith then check-raised and Williams called.

On the river {j-Hearts}, ensuring no low hand would be possible, Smith bet and was quickly called by Williams.

Smith showed {a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades} for a full house of threes over nines and Williams mucked his hand, sending a healthy pot across the table to Smith.

Baker Wins One; Chidwick Doubles

Level 13 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

David "ODB" Baker raised and then called a three-bet by Scott Seiver as both checked the {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop. On the {10-Hearts} turn, Baker bet for Seiver to call who had previously said in table chat "you are allowed to fold, you know ...". The {j-Clubs} river brought no major action and Baker tabled the {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} to win the pot.

Soon after that on the same table, Stephen Chidwick was all in with {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts} against the {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{x-} of Jonathan Cohen. The board ran out {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{a-Hearts} and Chidwick doubled with the flush.

Eslami Chops with Chidwick

Level 13 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Scott Seiver raised to 25,000 and Ali Eslami three-bet to 107,000 on the button with a single T-1,000 chip behind. Stephen Chidwick called in the big blind and Seiver folded.

Chidwick already exposed his {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} and Eslami then pointed to his one chip as they headed to the {9-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop. Chidwick bet the single chip and Eslami mulled it over for five seconds before sheepishly calling all in with the ... {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}!. The {8-Hearts} turn ensured the split pot and the {10-Spades} river didn't matter.

Michael Mizrachi
Michael Mizrachi

No-Limit Hold'em

Michael Mizrachi raised to 20,000 and called a three-bet to 65,000 from Yuri Dzivielevski. The flop was {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Mizrachi bet 30,000. Dzivielevski called.

The turn was the {a-Spades}.

"What's the minimum bet?" asked Mizrachi, before betting 8,000. Dzivielevski called.

"That's the cutest play I've ever seen," remarked Cates as the river came the {2-Hearts}. Mizrachi again bet 8,000 and Dzivielevski called. Mizrachi showed {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} but the Brazilian won the pot with {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

"You get points for making it cute," said Brandon Cantu as the table burst out laughing. "That was amazing."

"In No-Limit you can bet whatever you want," said Cates. "That's the cool thing about No-Limit."
