Livello 4 : Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

On a board of K♠9♦7♦6♠9♣, Jyri Merivirta bet all the way and he was called down by Eddie Blumenthal, who sigh-called after the river and seemingly knew he was beat. Merivirta tabled the A♦K♣K♥10♦ for kings full of nines and that indeed won the pot.

Livello 4 : Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Tom McCormick raised from late position and was three-bet by Tom Koral on the button. McCormick called and the two players saw a flop of 7♦10♦2♣.

McCormick check-called the flop, the turn K♠, and the river A♦.

McCormick showed only two cards, the A♠K♣ for two pair, but it would be second best to Korals' A♥8♥2♥2♦ for a flopped set of deuces.

Lambe Escapes From Elimination

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 4 : Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

On a three-way turn of J♠5♥2♥8♣, Donny Rubinstein checked and Kyle Ray bet for Dylan Lambe to call all-in for 1,600 total. Rubinstein stuck around and they checked the Q♥ on the river.

Rubinstein tabled the A♠K♦7♥3♦ for the nut low and no pair, which chopped with Lambe's A♣10♠5♦3♠. Ray won the high pot with the A♥J♦6♠6♣ for a pair of jacks, as his inferior low was no good. Despite earning a portion of the pot, Lambe's stack has dropped to fewer than two bets.
