Vuilleumier Gives Hauck Some Rope

Stewart Morrison

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

After an early position raise to 700, Alexandre Vuilleumier called in the hijack. The player in the cutoff called too, before Harold Hauck raised on the button to 2,000.

All three of the already involved players made the call, and the four went to a flop.

The dealer fanned out a J♣3♠10♦ flop, and when checked to, Hauck continued for 2,500. Only Vuilleumier made the call, and the dealer revealed the 10♣ turn.

Hauck continued to bet, this time for 5,000, which, again, Vuilleumier called.

The river K♥ saw Hauck wave the white flag, tabling 5♠5♦, which was no good versus the A♥J♥ of Vuilleumier.

Daniel Allen raised to 800 in the cutoff and Scott Dehm called in the small blind. Joseph Linville then three-bet to 3,000 in the big blind and Allen called, but Dehm four-bet to 10,000. Linville folded and Allen called.

The flop came J♦9♣8♥ and Dehm bet 12,000, sending Allen deep into the tank. "Sorry guys," he said to his tablemates after several minutes had already gone off the clock.

"I saw you double-clutch," he said to Dehm, who remained silent as Allen continued to agonize over the decision. "I'm only going to show this one. I'm not showing the other one," Allen eventually said, flashing the K♥ and mucking.

"I had jacks. I saw him double-clutch, too," Linville said, revealing he would've flopped top set. Dehm showed them A♠Q♠ as he took the pot.

Both players checked on the 7♠6♦8♥ flop and Freund checked again the K♠ turn. Leng announced a bet of 4,000 and Freund laid his hand down.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Gabriel Moura raised to 800 under the gun. Rodrigo Chiu then made it 2,500 in late position, which Jason Weissman cold-called on the button. Moura called as well, and the trio went off to a 7♣7♦6♥ flop.

Moura checked to Chiu, who bet 3,500. Weissman called before Moura got out of the way. Chiu sized up to 8,000 on the J♥ turn, seeing Weissman put in another call.

The 6♠ saw Chiu quickly move all in for a massive bet, and Weissman snap-called his stack of 35,100 in the middle, tabling 7♠7♥ for flopped quads.

Chiu was forced to show his Q♥Q♦ as he paid Weismann off, being left with just under 40 big blinds.
