Level 2 : Limits 300/600, 0 ante

Kevin Naima raised from middle position, and Bob Lauria reraised from the button. The players took in a 6♣7♣2♣ flop. Naima bet and Lauria called.

On a 10♦ turn both players checked. The river brought the 8♥. Naima again led out and was called by Lauria. Lauria flipped over 7♥7♦ for a set, and Naima mucked.

"I'm a limit hold 'em wizard!" declared Lauria.

"You know what it takes to be a limit hold 'em wizard?" his tablemate Chris Hartman asked. "Keep flopping trips!"

Level 2 : Limits 300/600, 0 ante

Gnana Duddukuru and Gray Guzman found themselves in a unique hand during the second level of blinds.

Duddukuru limped in late position after action folded to him, but Guzman raised on the button, prompting a call from Duddukuru.

The flop produced K♥3♦K♠ and both players checked their options. The turn brought out 3♣, leading to both players once again check, and then the dealer placed 3♥ on the river to put a full house on the board.

Duddukuru and Guzman checked it down, and Guzman tabled 9♦9♠ and Duddukuru showed 6♥5♥.

Neither of their hands affected the outcome, however, as Duddukuru and Guzman each played the board to chop the pot.
