Zhou Wins a Limped Pot

Tim Baker

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Quan Zhou limped from early position and Jeffrey Whittinghill called from the small blind. Dominykas Karmazinas checked out of the big blind, and they went to the flop three ways.

Whittinghill checked the 6♦10♠3♦ flop, and Karmazinas bet 20,000. Only Zhou called.

The 9♥ appeared on the turn and Karmazinas bet again, this time for 60,000. Zhou looked back at his cards and then raised to 260,000. Karmazinas folded, and Zhou added some chips to his stack.

Friendly Fire Before the Bubble

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ray Attiyah just arrived at the table to see Colin Mchugh raise it up from middle position and Phil Hellmuth folded his Q♥5♥4♠3♥ face up in the big blind. Mchugh responded by throwing his A♣A♦10♥8♣ face up into the middle of the table as well.

"This is a talking and showing table?" Attiyah inquired.

"Friendly table," Alex Livingston replied.

"Until you beat me in a big pot," Hellmuth chimed in.

Upon the next pitch of the cards, Justin Armstrong raised the pot to 28,000 in middle position and was called by Brandon Crawford in the cutoff. The flop came J♥10♥8♦ and Armstrong piled all in for his last 35,000 which Crawford quickly called.

Justin Armstrong: A♠A♣K♦J♣ All in
Brandon Crawford: J♦10♠5♠4♦

Crawford flopped two pair to take the lead against Armstrong's aces. The 2♠ and 7♣ runout changed nothing and Armstrong wished the table well before exiting.
