Vedes Flops a Double

Liv Boereesy game.
Liv Boereesy game.

A slightly miffed Liv Boeree (although with 50k she's not in terrible shape) just told us how she'd doubled up Tommy Vedes, losing a nice 20k chunk of her own stack in the process. She'd raised with {A-} {K-}, and seen a flop of {A-} {3-} {3-}. It would seem fairly good, until she had Vedes all in and he showed {7-} {3-}.

JP Do-la-nates To John

Arriving at the table on the turn, we saw JP Kelly in the big blind fire out a 3,200 bet on the turn of a {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {4-Clubs} board against John Dolan who was on the button.

Dolan though raised to 8,625 and Kelly called after some brief deliberation. The river was the {A-Clubs} and Kelly checked, Dolan sliding out a bet of 16,200.

This sizeable amount put Kelly deep into the tank, before he made the call after five minutes, Dolan showed him {A-Diamonds} {6-Spades} for the rivered full house. Kelly nodded and paid the November Niner a good chunk of his chips.

The Final Furlong

Noel Furlong
Noel Furlong

Noel Furlong has just been eliminated by Phil Ivey, who was one of four callers of his 1,500 preflop raise. The flop: {9-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {4-Hearts}. Ivey bet out, and Furlong instantly moved in for just under 10k total. Everyone else scattered like showers and Ivey called, his {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts} ahead even without the flopped Nine of Furlong's {J-Spades} {6-Hearts}. The turn and river fell {A-Spades} {3-Hearts} and Furlong's hopes to repeat World Series Main Event glory are at an end.

Benyamine Bounced

David Benyamine
David Benyamine

David Benyamine was all in preflop and called by JC Tran and another player. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Tran fired 4,200. The other player left in the hand that was active and called.

The turn brought the {8-Diamonds} and both Tran and the other player checked while Benyamine awaited his fate patiently. The river brought the {4-Spades} and both players checked. Tran mucked as the other player tabled the {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Benyamine held the {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} and was eliminated.

Ivey Sliding More

From under the gun, Phil Ivey raised to 1,100. Noel Furlong called from the button and the player in the big blind made the call as well. The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and the big blind checked. Ivey fired 2,000 and Furlong folded. The big blind then put in a raise to 6,000 and Ivey folded.

Ivey is on about 19,000 right now and can't seem to get things going in the right direction.
