Churko Gets an Early Double

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Action folded around to Khloe Churko on the button and she raised to 400. The big blind was the only caller and the players when heads-up to the flop.

The dealer brought the A54, and the big blind raised to 1,000. Churko re-raised to 2,500 and the big blind called.

The 7 was turned and the big blind bet out 2,500. Churko raised to 6,000 and the big blind called behind, taking them to the 8 river.

The big blind opted to check and Churko moved all in for her remaining 11,000 stack. The big blind made a quick call and the players flipped their hands.

Khloe Churko: AQAll in
Big Blind: A2

Both players had a pair of aces, but Churko had the better queen kicker. The big blind was left with just 600 chips after the hand.

Moore Holds with Aces

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Megan Moore
Megan Moore

Action folded around to middle position, who raised into Megan Moore in the hijack. Middle position made a quick call and players went heads-up to the flop.

Megan Moore: AAAll in
Middle Position: KK

Once the cards were flipped, another player at the table commented "I folded queens", and appeared happy that they had gotten away from the pocket kings and aces.

The J8J flop, 6 turn and 10 river didn't change anything and Moore got the double.

Lane Wins Two Big Hands to Eliminate Opponent

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Action started with a raise to 3,000 from the player under the gun, which was called by Yurina Omuro in middle position. Action was folded to Medina Lane in the blinds, who three-bet to 11,000. The original raiser went all in for a bit over that amount and Omuro folded. Lane called the all-in.

Under the gun: AKAll in
Medina Lane: JxJx

The board ran out 88322 and Lane took down the pot, while her opponent was eliminated.

Lane later said that she had previously doubled up versus the same player with KxKx versus QxQx.

Omuro, who folded to the three-bet and shove preflop, said she had 88 and would have flopped quads.

Merk's Bold Bluff or Nut Flush?

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

PokerNews caught the action with the board showing 6Q83 and around 2,000 in the pot. Abby Merk, sitting in the small blind, checked, and her opponent bet 1,600 from the cutoff. Merk raised to 3,500, and her opponent called.

The dealer turned the 8 on the river, and Merk, first to act, bet 7,000. Her opponent folded.

"Nut flush," Merk commented without showing her cards, leaving many skeptical faces at the table and prompting another player to assume she was bluffing.

Stahl Is Not Playing Ace-King Suited Anymore

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

At her very fun and lively table, Kathy Stahl said she will no longer play ace-king suited after losing a hand to Sarah Remko, where the board read J751010.

According to the players, Stahl bet every street until the river, when she decided to check. Remko then bet and Stahl folded, but showed the hand, the AK. Remko showed hers, too, the Q10.

Stahl was way ahead on the flop with a better flush draw and overcards to the flop, but then Remko caught a pair on the turn and trips on the river. When Stahl saw what happened, she erupted saying she is done playing ace-king suited. She later amended her position by saying she might limp the hand.

Remko took down a pot of about 11,000 chips.
