Del Vecchio Done and Dusted

Chad Holloway

Level 13 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Rob Wazwaz raised to 6,000 from middle position only to have Mike Del Vecchio three-bet jam for around 50,000 from the button. Ankush Mandavia then four-bet all in for a bit more from the small blind and Wazwaz got out of the way.

Mike Del Vecchio:
Ankush Mandavia:

Del Vecchio was way behind but he got lucky on the flop to take the lead. The turn gave him trip queens, but he wouldn't win as the spiked on the river to give Mandavia Broadway. Just like that Del Vecchio hit the rail.

Colpitts Correctly Calls

LoriPersinger

Level 13 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

We caught the action on a board reading and about 90,000 in the headsup pot. Facing a bet of 60,000 Jeffrey Colpitts tanked for about a minute before he tossed in the calling chips.

The other player reluctantly tabled the and quickly mucked both cards after Colpitts tabled to take the pot.

LoriPersinger

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Byron Kaverman made it 9,000 to go from early position and David "ODB" Baker was the only caller.

After Kaverman continued for 13,000 on the flop, Baker raised to 28,000 and Kaverman made the call. Kaverman then checked the turn, Baker bet out another 28,000, which was enough to take down the pot.
