Komaromi Doesn't Fall for Foxen's Trap

Tim Baker

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Alex Foxen checked from the hijack on a board of J♣7♣8♣Q♠. Alex Komaromi bet 22,000 from the button, which Foxen called.

Foxen checked for the last time on the A♥ river. Komaromi mulled over his options for a few moments before checking. Komaromi picked the right choice as Foxen turned over A♣J♦J♠5♣ for the ace-high flush.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Three players headed to a flop of Q♣9♣4♥ and the action checked around to the A♥ on the turn. Christian Harder checked again from the blinds and Alan Sternberg took a stab at the pot with a bet of 26,000 in middle position. Daemon Richardson called on the button and Harder got out of the way.

The river was the 2♥ and Sternberg checked after the backdoor flush came in. Richardson splashed in a bunch of T25,000 chips and Sternberg quickly folded, leaving himself with just under starting stack.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Thomas Taylor raised it up in middle position and Nacho Barbero just flat-called on his left. The flop came 7♠3♠2♣ and Taylor checked to Barbero who bet the pot for 18,500. Taylor instantly check-raised the maximum and Barbero called off his stack of 42,500.

Nacho Barbero: K♠10♦9♦8♠ All in
Thomas Taylor: A♠K♥Q♥J♠

Both players flopped a flush draw without a pair but it was Taylor who had the distinct edge. However, the 9♥ on the turn gave Barbero the only pair and the 2♥ paired the board on the river.

"You got scammed, man," Barbero said after collecting the pot.

On a completed board of A♦J♥8♣4♣K♥, Dennis Weiss checked out of the big blind. Parviz Razavian then bet 15,000 and Weiss reluctantly called.

"I have the nuts," Parvizian declared and his Q♣10♣10♦7♣ won the pot. Also on the table is Esther Taylor, who finished third in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship yesterday.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Cesar Garcia Dominguez was all-in with a severe short stack and tabled the A♥5♥4♠3♦. Alex Livingston had the superior A♦Q♥10♣7♦ but the A♠6♠3♥3♠10♦ board gave the Spaniard a full house. Despite that, he bowed out soon after and Livingston was left with fumes.
