Cluzel Gets Paid on River

Roxanne Johnson

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

This particular table was lucky to have a handsomely dressed Tom McEvoy with a pink dress shirt and a pink cowboy hat sitting at their table but they were all sadly disappointed when he was moved to a new table.

The player in the cutoff raised to 600 and Daniel Cluzel on the button three-bet to 2,100. The big blind and the button both called. The flop came out with Q♠J♦9♥ and everyone checked to Cluzel who bet out 4,000 and only the big blind called.

On the turn 9♦ the big blind checked again and Cluzel bet again to 5,000 and received the call.

The river 9♠ had the big blind check and Cluzel moved all in for 16,900 and got the call.

Daniel Cluzel: A♠A♦ All in
Big blind: Q♥10♦

Both players had a full house but Cluzel had the higher one and raked in a nice pot.

The player in middle position raised, Mallory Frere three-bet to 1,800 from the cutoff and the button cold four-bet to 4,200. The original raiser folded and Frere called.

The 6♦2♥J♥ flop saw Frere play in flow, check-calling a bet of 2,400 from the button.

The 3♠ turn checked through to the 6♥ on the river. Frere took a stab for 2,000 and the button was forced to fold, eventually confessing to the table he held ace-king.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

A player in early position limped in. The action folded to Barry Greenstein's big blind, who checked his option.

The 5♦9♦7♠ flop saw Greenstein elect to take the lead. A bet of 500 was enough to see his opponent's cards into the muck.

Four players saw the flop of 9♥J♦4♦. The middle position player bet 1,000 into 1,600 and Marc Rivera raised to 2,500 in the cutoff. The small blind cold-called, big blind called as well, and middle position decided to fold.

The turn was the 10♣, bringing in possible straights. Rivera continued for 6,000 and got a call from the small blind. The big blind thought for a while and then folded.

The river A♥ got checked by both remaining players. Rivera showed Q♣J♥ and his opponent showed he got out-kicked with Q♠10♠.

According to the players, David Kaufmann opened the action from middle position preflop and got three callers - Mark Golub in the hijack, the player in the cutoff and Barry Greenstein in the big blind.

The flop was 5♥3♥9♣. Kaufmann checked and Golub bet. After a call from the cutoff and a fold from Greenstein, Kaufman raised. Golub called and the cutoff folded.

The turn was the A♠. Kaufmann bet 3,500 and Golub called.

On the river A♣, Kaufman bet 8,500, which represented over a third of Golub’s remaining stack. Golub called.

Kaufman turned over A♥A♦ for quads by the river, and Golub showed he managed to not lose all of his chips with 3♠3♦ for a flopped set of threes and threes-full-of-aces on the river.
