Schneider Loses a Little

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Tom Schneider raised to 1,300 from the hijack, the cutoff called, and the button called.

The flop came {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and Schneider bet 2,000. The cutoff called and the button folded.

The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and both players checked.

The river was the {7-Diamonds} and Schneider checked. The cutoff bet 4,000, and after a bit of consideration, Schneider folded.

Broadway on the River for Reichenstein

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Uri Reichenstein raised to 1,300 from early position and was called by the cutoff, the button, and the big blind. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} and the big blind checked to Reichenstein who bet 2,800. The cutoff and button both called while the big blind folded.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and everyone checked through to the {10-Hearts} on the river. Reichenstein led out for 11,700 and the cutoff instantly called. The button folded and both players showed their cards. Reichenstein tabled {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for a straight while his opponent tabled {a-Spades}{6-Spades} for two pair.

Kevin Saul Eliminated by Eric Rappaport

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Kevin Saul was all in while Eric Rappaport and Ivan Deyra played out a hand. The board read {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Deyra had a bet of 1,400 in front of him. Rappaport raised to 10,000 and Deyra folded.

"You're my hero if you somehow have eight-high," said Saul.

Rappaport turned over pocket threes, {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}, for flopped quads and sent Saul to the rail.

"Next year I guess. Play well guys," Saul said to the table as he left.
