Adam Lamers

Level 1 : 300/600, 0 ante

Michael Senter raised it up on the button and Kristen Foxen reraised from the small blind. Senter just called and the dealer fanned the flop of A♣10♥5♥. Foxen continued with a bet and Senter still called.

The turn brought the Q♣ and Foxen checked this time. Senter flicked in a bet and Foxen stuck around for the 4♣ on the river. Foxen checked once more and Senter made one final bet. Foxen looked him up and Senter showed Q♠10♣ for two pair to win the pot.

Level 1 : 300/600, 0 ante

Morten Klein opened from the hijack, but Moshe Gavrieli three-bet on the button. In the big blind, Peter Rouviere didn't see that raise but called anyway, and Klein did too.

On 10♠6♥10♦, Gavrieli led again after two checks. But this time, only Klein called. The K♣ came on the turn, and the action was the same as on the flop: a bet from Gavrieli and a call.

On the river 5♥, Gavrieli bet a third time. Klein looked at the board and called. Gavrieli flipped 8♠7♠ for a missed straight draw. Klein took a few seconds to analyze the board and revealed A♠8♦, the winning hand.
