Rubinstein Puts Holloway on Deuces

David Salituro

Level 5

2-7 Triple Draw

Donny Rubinstein took two and bet on the first draw while Chad Holloway took three and called.

Holloway took two more on the second draw and Rubinstein drew one as both players checked. Holloway took another two on the final draw and Rubinstein took one.

"Record every detail. I'm going to slow roll him," Rubinstein said as he bet and Holloway began tanking. Holloway eventually folded.

"What a read. I put him on a pair of deuces," Rubinstein said as he took the pot.

Level 4

Stud Hi-Lo

Eduardo De Farias: XxXx/J♣J♠7♥3♦/Xx
First Opponent: XxXx7♣7♦2♦10♦/Xx
Second Opponent: XxXx/10♥2♥K♣2♣/Xx

Eduardo De Farias bet on fourth and fifth streets and was called by two opponents. He bet again on sixth and both opponents called.

Heading to seventh street, the dealer accidently exposed De Farias' last card and the floor had to be called over. It was eventually ruled that the card had to be shuffled back into the deck.

All three players checked seventh and De Farias earned the pot with 10♠5♥5♦.

Eli Elezra and Brian Yoon are also seated at this table.

Level 4

Pot-Limit Omaha

Three players, including Frederic Moss in the hijack and Joe McKeehen on the button, went to a flop of 3♦A♦4♦. Action checked to McKeehen who tossed out a bet of 2,000.

Both opponents called as the turn came 8♠. All three players checked to the 7♠ river, when the small blind bet 7,000.

Moss quickly called while McKeehen mucked. "You got it," the small blind said, flashing the K♦. Moss showed J♦10♦ for the flopped flush as he took down the big pot.

Level 4

No-Limit Hold'em

Shawn Buchanan was already all in with a short stack as Adam Friedman and Joe Weinberger built a 1,000 side pot heading to the A♥8♥3♥ flop.

Friedman, in the small blind, bet 500 and Weinberger called. Friedman checked the 2♥ turn and Weinberger checked behind.

The river came the 10♠ and both players quickly checked. Friedman turned over Q♣10♣ for a pair of tens, but Weinberger had A♠5♣ for a pair of aces to win the pot as Buchanan ran off to reenter.
