Kim McClymont Rivers a Higher Set vs. Deborah Worley-Roberts to Stay Alive

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Kim McClymont filled us in on the preflop action in her recent double-up. Deborah Worley-Roberts raised to 1,200 in middle position and McClymont went all in for 4,900 in the small blind. The big blind folded and Worley-Roberts called to put McClymont at risk.

Worley-Roberts was behind with pocket sixes against McClymont's pocket nines, but she flopped a set on the {K-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop. The {Q-Hearts} turn changed nothing, but the {9-Hearts} came on the river to give McClymont a higher set. McClymont shouted with joy and surprise as she was standing to make her exit, and sat back down to collect the double-up.

Elizabeth Montizanti Gets the Right Caller

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player under the gun raised to 800 and a player in middle position called. Elizabeth Montizanti then moved all in for 3,850 from the next position. It folded back to the initial raiser and she re-shoved. The next player then shrugged her shoulders and folded {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} face up.

Montizanti: {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Under the gun: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Montizanti found an ace and the case ten to make aces up. The {7-Spades} turn and the {Q-Diamonds} river changed nothing. Montizanti got the right player to fold preflop and she more than doubled up.
