Mike Leah Takes One Without Showdown

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante

After a opening raise, Mike Leah made it three bets preflop. Action folded around and the original raiser called.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Spades} and action checked to Leah, who bet. His opponent called. The turn was the {A-Spades} and after a check, Leah bet again and was called.

The river was the {5-Spades} and action checked to Leah for a third time. He bet, but this time his opponent folded and Leah scooped the pot.

Allyn Shulman Finds Some Needed Chips

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante

For most of the day Allyn Shulman has been cruising well below the starting stack. She has finally picked up some chips after a recent hand.

On the river, with the board showing {J-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Spades} Shulman was checked to. She bet and after taking some time to think over the hand, her opponent called. Shulman showed {A-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush and that was good to take down the entire pot. While she has not quite moved back over the starting stack, she is starting to trend in the right direction.

Chino Rheem Finds a Fold Against Quads

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante
Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

On a board of {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Spades}, action checked to Chino Rheem. He bet and was called by two other players.

The turn was the {10-Clubs} and all three players checked. On the {J-Clubs} river, the player first to act bet. Rheem went into the tank and thought long before finally announcing a fold. The other player in the hand folded as well.

Rheem hadn't released his cards into the muck yet. "I made a big fold," he said, showing {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a flopped full house. The other player in the hand showed {A-Spades}{9-Spades} for a missed flush draw. The player who bet then turned up the {10-Diamonds} showing she had quads. Rheem tapped the table, acknowledging he had folded correctly as he passed his chips to the player next to him.
