Roff Going for Lee

Jerome Solomon

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Phillip Lee raised to 1,500 from the cutoff. Brian Roff defended his small blind.

The flop of K♥10♥3♠ elicited checks from the pair. The A♠ on the turn brought a 2,000-chip bet from Lee, which Roff called.

The river was the K♠, and Roff took the lead, flipping a 5,000 chip forward. Lee paused for a but, then made the call.

"I think I got you," he said.

He didn't.

Roff turned over 7♠6♠ for the winning hand with a flush.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Three ways to the 5♥4♥3♦ flop, Douglas Hobold had 2,000 out in front and Zachariah Kates then pushed all-in for around 14,000. Kenton Baker called and Hobold folded.

Zachariah Kates: J♠J♦ All in
Kenton Baker: 5♠5♦

The flopped set of Baker had Kates on the ropes, who failed to connect with the 7♦ turn and A♦ river.
