King Hunted Down on River

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

The small blind raised preflop to 2,600 and then Thomas Hunt III in the cutoff three-bet to 11,600. After a few seconds, the small blind then moved all in , covering Hunt.

Hunt quickly made the call, putting himself at risk.

Thomas Hunt III: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Small Blind: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} to save Hunt from elimination with a king on the river, much to his opponent's distaste.

"I mean thats the worst thing I can have in that situation, just got lucky," Hunt told him as he scooped in the pot.

Starline's Kings Best Fawcett's Aces

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

PokerNews joined the action when there was an all in and a call. Justin Fawcett was all in for 15,500 and at risk against Toni Starline.

Justin Fawcett: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Toni Starline: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Fawcett was in great shape. The flop came safely {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}, but the turn came the {k-Diamonds} giving Starline a set. The river was the {9-Hearts} improving Starline to a flush which sent Fawcett to the rail.

Fawcett said "Time to rebuy". Starline said "Classic race" in which her tablemate responded "Classic Omaha race".

Vigelette Bets Big on River

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

On a completed board of {6-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, George Vigelette in early position bet 20,000 into the already swelled pot of 33,000. His heads-up opponent in middle position went deep into the tank and clearly looked distressed.

Eventually he made the fold, but not before flashing {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a rivered nut flush.

"I tried to get you off of it earlier," said Vigelette, "I had it for sure, I just didn't want to see any club or any heart without the board pairing," implying that he had made a full house on the river.
