Micon Pays Off Kessler

Level 3
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Stud Hi

Action was picked up on fourth street between Allen Kessler and Bryan Micon.

Allen Kessler: XxXx/J9Q10/Xx
Bryan Micon: XxXx/AQJ8/Xx

Micon bet on fourth and fifth street, with Kessler calling each time.

On sixth street, Micon checked over to Kessler who asked "you check now?" before tossing in a bet, which Micon quickly called.

Seventh street came along and once more Micon checked to Kessler who bet and Micon looked at his hand.

"I'm going to make the worse pay off with aces up," he said as he tossed in the chips.

Kessler indeed had the straight as he turned up KJ5 for a king-high straight, while Micon only mustered A33 for aces and threes, ceding the pot to Kessler.

The Chad & Jesse Poker Show: Josh Arieh Talks Hot 2023 WSOP; David Williams on Bracelet Stolen in Home Robbery

Level 4

On the latest PokerNews Podcast episode, Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen continue The Chad & Jesse Poker Show straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

In the penultimate show of the summer, Chad & Jesse welcome two guests to the show starting with Josh Arieh, who has won two bracelets this summer and was nominated for the Poker Hall of Fame. Arieh talked about the WSOP back in the late 1990s, his career resurgence, Poker Stake, and shares a fun story involving Ted Forrest and the late Layne Flack.

The other guest is 2004 WSOP Main Event runner-up David Williams, who was fresh of winning a Flip & Go. He talks about his history in that event, how his WSOP gold bracelet and diamond toothpick were stolen in a home robbery, and why he wouldn’t do Master Chef again.

Chad and Jesse then do a new "Calling the Clock" segment in which they offer quick two-minute dialogues for topics on “The Board.”

Heimiller Turns The Nuts

Level 4

Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better

Action was picked up in a pot between four players including Dan Heimiller in the small blind and Chris Tryba in late position.

On the flop of 67Q action checked to the early position player who bet and all players called.

The turn of 10 saw action check to the early position player who bet and Tryba raised which folded out the button while Heimiller three-bet and both the early position player and Tryba called.

The river peeled off a 3 and Heimiller bet which saw the early position player call and Tryba shook his head. He frustratingly tossed his cards into the muck, telling the table after the hand he had A310x6x.

Dan Heimiller: 9885
Opponent: 8762

Heimiller took the high while his opponent took the low as they chopped up the pot.
