Aces, Kings and Jacks, Oh My!

Joseph Berg

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Action was picked up with three players all in preflop, all holding premium pocket pairs. Vladas Tamasauskas was in an early position and at risk, Jason Blodgett was in the cutoff, having both opponents covered, and Steven Tooley was on the button and also at risk.

Steven Tooley: J♥J♣ All in
Vladas Tamasauskas: K♥K♣ All in
Jason Blodgett: A♠A♦

Blodgett was in the ideal situation to accumulate three times his starting stack, and things looked good on the Q♥8♥9♠ flop. Blodgett winced ever so slightly as he saw the K♦ fall on the turn as he went from a huge favorite to a huge underdog. The river 4♠ was of no help, and Tamasauskas scored a huge pot in the early goings.

With the board laid out and reading A♣J♠K♦8♥, Kyle Swan checked from early position to Kurt Fitzgerald in the cutoff, who bet out for 1,200. Swan called.

The river saw the 2♠ drop, and again Swan checked, and this time Fitzgerald bet out for 3,600. Swan didn't think too long and made the call, but instantly mucked his cards when he saw Fitzgerald table A♦A♠ for a flopped set of bullets.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Gary Marinez raised to 600 from the button and was called by Abraham Uittenbogaard in the big blind.

The flop came Q♠A♣4♣ and Uittenbogaard check-called Marinez's 1,000 continuation bet. The turn brought the 3♣ and now Uittenbogaard bet out for 5,000 only for Marinez to raise to 11,000. Uittenbogaard countered and moved all-in, and Marinez snap-called.

Gary Marinez: Q♦Q♥ All in
Abraham Uittenbogaard: A♠8♣

Uittenbogaard was ahead with his turned flush, but then the Q♣ came on the river and gave Marinez quads, and the healthy pot was shipped his way.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

After running into Gary Marinez's quads, Abraham Uittenbogaard announced that he was all in blind, and the action moved around to Marinez, who called only to face an all-in three-bet from Jose Nadal in late position. Marinez made the call.

Abraham Uittenbogaard: 8♦4♠ All in
Jose Nadal: Q♦K♠ All in
Gary Marinez: Q♥8♥

An eight as the door card on the 8♠9♦9♥ flop, and it was looking grim for Nadal. He got no help with the A♦ turn, and when the river bricked out with the 7♠, Nadal was sent to the rail, and Uittenbogaard got a reprieve, chopping the main pot with Marinez, who scooped the side pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Michael Schwartz raised to 1,100 from under the gun and was called by Jasthi Kumar in the cutoff and Francisco Lingaling in the big blind.

The dealer revealed a Q♠A♣10♥ flop, action checked to Kumar, who bet 1,100, Lingaling called, and Schwartz then reraised to 6,500. Kumar called, and Lingaling folded.

Action checked through on the Q♥ turn card.

The river was the 2♠. Schwartz bet 5,000, enough to cover Kumar, who made the call. Schwartz tabled Q♣10♦, good for a full house and the winner.
