Kurt Jewell Turns a Gem

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

The player under the gun raised to 450 and got calls from Pok Kim in early position and Kurt Jewell in the big blind.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Jewell checked, the under-the-gun player bet 1,200 and Kim called. Jewel wasted no time and moved all in for his last 3,375. The initial raiser folded, and Kim snap-called.

Jewell was at risk with {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a flush draw, and Kim tabled {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for a set of nines. The turn was the {8-Hearts} to give Jewell a flush, and the river was the {q-Spades}. Jewell held for a double-up and Kim dropped down to half the starting stack.

Martin Kabrhel Wins One

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

A player in middle position opened to 350. Martin Kabrhel called from two seats over so did the player in the small blind.

The players saw a flop of {2-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}. The small blind and the original raiser checked. Kabrhel bet 400. The small blind stuck around with a call but the original raiser folded.

The turn was the {q-Clubs}. The small blind checked again and Kabrhel continued for 3,000. The small blind called.

The {8-Hearts} filled up on the river and the small blind checked for a third time. Kabrhel moved all in for around 3,300, and his opponent tank-folded.

''You're running bad,'' Kabrhel told his opponent. ''What did you have?'' asked a player at the table, ''A set of jacks,'' Kabrhel answered.
