David Salituro

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Robert Carswell raised to 1,100 in middle position, Kris Morrison three-bet to 3,500 in the cutoff, and Carswell called.

The flop came 8♣10♥Q♠ and Morrison bet 2,500. Carswell called and both players then checked the 2♦ turn.

The river was the 3♣ and Morrison bet another 3,500. Carswell quickly called, then mucked when Morrison showed K♥K♠ to win the pot.

Texas Mike Hits the Rail

Tyler Boyer

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Michael Moncek raised to 900 from middle position, and Aristide Carozza in the cutoff made the call. Then the small blind Chris Dandrea three-bet to 3,300. After it folded back to Moncek, he four-bet all in for 19,100. Carozza folded, and after confirming the count Dandrea made the call.

Michael Moncek: A♦7♦ All in
Chris Dandrea: A♠K♥

Moncek was dominated by the ace-king of Dandrea, and the 9♣Q♠3♦ flop was no help to Moncek. The 10♦ on the turn did bring Moncek more outs with a flush draw. But when the 9♠ hit the river, Dandrea's ace-king high was still best, and Moncek was eliminated from the tournament.

Maxime Taldir

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Christopher Puetz opened to 1,000 from the cutoff and he was called by the big blind.

On a flop of 10♦7♣8♠, Puetz continued for 2,000. The big blind, who checked, snap-called. However he quickly check-folded when Puetz fired a second barrel of 4,800 on the A♣ turn.

On the next hand, Puetz opened to 1,000 once again from the hijack, but the same opponent in the small blind three-bet to 3,500. Puetz didn't wait to fold.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Leibgorin checked following the 3♣K♣K♥ flop, then called a 700 continuation from Shimodan.

Action checked through the 9♣ turn to the 5♥ river at which point Leibgorin bet out 3,000. Shimodan responded with a raise to 10,000 which Leibgorin quickly called before mucking after Shimodan tabled 5♠5♦ for the rivered full house.
