Stud Games: 10,000-30,000, 30,000-60,000, 10,000 Ante
Limit Hold'em
In a blind versus blind battle, Marco Johnson bet on a flop of J♠8♥6♥ and Walter Chambers called.
Johnson bet on the 9♠ turn, but Chambers raised this time. Johnson reraised and Chambers called. The river was the K♣ and Johnson bet. Chambers just called this time and Johnson showed Q♠10♣ for a straight to win the pot.
The next hand, Scott Seiver bet from the cutoff on a flop of 5♣3♠2♦ and Dylan Smith called in the hijack.
Both players checked the J♥ turn and Seiver bet again on the 2♥ river. Smith then raised.
"I made a check back that I've literally never made in my 20-year career. Checks a big pair on the turn, who does that?" Seiver muttered to himself as he took several minutes before calling. Smith showed 3♥3♣ for a full house and Seiver mucked.
