Reichenstein Gets a River Shove Through Two

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

David Peters was under the gun and bet 2,500 on a {5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. A player on the button called and Uri Reichenstein tanked awhile before putting 10,000 in the pot. Peters called, as did the third player. Everyone checked the {2-Spades} and the river was a {6-Spades}. Reichenstein told the dealer he was all in and slid his chips in. Peters immediately pointed for a count. It was 30,075, just a little under the pot. Peters eventually folded, as did the third player.

We found Sam Grafton all in for what looked like about 40,000 in a bloated pot with {7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{6-Diamonds} on the board. Ole Schemion counted out calling chips and put them in.

Schemion: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Grafton: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Grafton had a huge edge fading only three queens and the river was a {j-Clubs}.

Oliveira Gets Away

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

Pedro Oliveira was in the small blind and check-calling on a board of {q-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. A player in middle position bet 2,000 on the flop and 10,000 on the turn. Oliveira checked a final time on the {9-Clubs} and his opponent dropped in a pile of T5,000 chips. No sooner were they on the felt than Oliveira had folded, and his opponent showed {a-Spades}{10-Spades} for the nuts.

Alex Difelice
Alex Difelice

The player in the hijack raised to 1,200 and both Mathijs Jonkers, in the cutoff, and Alex Difelice, in the big blind, called.

They all checked through the {4-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} on the flop. The turn brought them the {9-Hearts}, Difelice bet 2,400, the hijack called and Jonkers folded.

The river completed the board with the {Q-Hearts} on which they both checked. Difelice showed {10-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a rivered flush and that was enough for his opponent to muck his cards.
