Savage And Pham At Same Table

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Defending Casino Employee champion Hoai Pham has just been moved to the same table as WPT Tournament Director Matt Savage. Savage is sitting with around 4,500 while Pham has a commanding lead of the table with about 14,000. Should be an interesting table to watch.

Lisa Wilkins Spikes a Ten on the Turn to Crack Kings

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

After a player in middle position raised to 600, Wilkins called from the hijack and the small blind came along for the ride. The dealer revealed a flop of {3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and the players checked around. When the turn brought the {10-Hearts}, the action heated up with the small blind betting 800 and the player in middle position raising to 1,650. Wilkins reraised all-in to 2,150, prompting a fold from the small blind and a call from the player in middle position, who showed {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. Wilkins proudly flipped her {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and a {9-Clubs} on the river sealed the win.

Baker Scoops a Huge Pot

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

We missed the preflop action, but caught up to see Rich Baker debating a call of his opponent’s all in on a flop of {4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. Eventually Baker made the call, turning over {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}. His opponent flipped up {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}.

The turn came a {K-Hearts}, giving Baker trip kings, but this also gave his opponent a heart flush draw. The river was filled with momentary drama as the {8-Hearts} fell, giving Baker’s opponent a flush, but this card also gave Baker kings full of eights, which was enough to scoop a fair sized pot and bring Baker’s stack up to about 16,000.

Ray Tang's Rivered Flush Elimnates Opponent

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

With the flop reading {K-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, Ray Tang and another player found themselves all in. Tang showed the {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and needed to make his flush or spike a gutshot straight to overtake the {J-Spades}{J-Clubs} held by his opponent. The {5-Spades} on the turn missed Tang and he needed to hit the river to avoid losing most of his chips. When the dealer peeled the {10-Clubs} on the river, Tang made a flush to eliminate his opponent, building his stack to 9,425 in the process.

George Kouselas Doubles

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

The under-the-gun-player raised to 550 and the small blind called. George Kouselas from Santa Fe re-raised all in from the big blind for 1,450, prompting a fold from the under-the-gun player. The small blind made the call and revealed {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, which needed help against Kouselas' {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. No help came when the board ran out {A-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{Q-Spades}, doubling Kouselas up.

McClelland Spikes Two Outer to Survive

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Still short stacked, Jack McClelland got his last 1,300 in preflop in with {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} and was called by an opponent with {a-Spades}{q-Spades}. The flop was a disaster for McClelland as it came {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. The turn came the {7-Hearts} and McClelland was down to just two outs. One of them came on the river when it hit the {10-Diamonds} and the former WSOP tournament director doubled up to around 2,700.

Savage Doubles Through Pham

Livello 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

It was folded around to Hoai Pham who made it 525 from middle position and Matt Savage was the only caller from the small blind. The flop came {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Savage checked. Pham announced 1,700 but before his chips were even in the pot, Savage moved all in for 4,375. Pham made the call with {K-Spades}{7-Spades} for a flush draw but was up against the trips of Savage who held {Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The turn and river were the {6-Hearts} and {9-Hearts} which doubled Savage up to 10,000.
