Luck of the Irish

Livello 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

A player in early position raised to 3,500. On their direct left, Stacie Irish raised to 9,000 and a player in the hijack cold called the three-bet. The original raiser came back with a four-bet jam for 58,000 and Irish called off the bet for her last 24,000.

"I'm probably folding the best hand" said the hijack after tanking for some time and tossing their cards into the muck.

Stacie Irish: A♥A♣
Early Position: J♦J♣

The board ran out Q♥7♦8♣K♥4♣ and Irish found a full double by virtue of her aces.

Thibodeau in Profit Land

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

After some back and forth, Jacob Thibodeau and 'hammered drunk' David Florio got all the chips into the middle, with Florio covering.

Jacob Thibodeau: K♠K♦
David Florio: A♥K♥

"Kings? Oh, I'm dead," Florio sighed as the cards were tabled.

"Oh, that's far from dead," tablemate Walker Miskelly commented as the dealer put out the Q♥Q♠10♣ flop to make it a sweat.

Unfortunately for Florio, the 6♣7♦ runout did not help him and Thibodeau scored the full double up.

Left with only 2,400, Florio got it all in the very next hand, followed by a reshove by Thibodeau and another all-in by another player for less.

David Florio: 10♠3♠
Player 2: A♣3♣
Jacob Thibodeau: 4♦4♠

The flop of 7♥5♣4♣ gave Thibodeau the lead with a set of fours, but Player 2 also had a straight-flush draw to make it a sweat. Not surprisingly, the board went brick-brick with the J♠8♦ runout and Thibodeau scooped the pot to add two more bounties to his hoard, making that six in total.

Zolotow Doubles

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player in early position raised to 3,000 and Steve Zolotow in the hijack called.

On a flop of 5♠7♥9♦, the early position player check-called a bet of 5,200 from Zolotow.

The 9♠ fell on the turn and Zolotow's opponent checked again. Zolotow moved all in for his last 10,000 and the other player called.

Steve Zolotow: K♣9♣
Early Position: A♣Q♠

The inconsequential 7♣ came on the river and Zolotow doubled.

Wizard of Ozdamir; All The Heart

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Taria Ozdamir, of Germany, found himself in a chaotic four-way all in, he was out of his seat and on his feet, sweating every moment.

Small Blind: A♠Q♣
Early Position: K♣5♠
Taria Ozdamir: 3♣3♦
Middle Position: K♦K♥

The Pair of kings were well ahead before the flop and continued to be so when the dealer slid out the 4♦2♣8♦. The A♦ turned everything on its' head as the player in the small blind pulled ahead but there were still outs for a wheel from Ozdamir and the early position player.

When the 5♥ peeled, Ozdamir did finger guns to the sky, yelling, "Buh, Buh Buh!!", as he claimed his bounties. He only had two of the players covers but he was beyond ecstatic at rivering the wheel.

When PokerNews spoker with Ozdamir, he wanted to make it known he's playing to pay for his flight home and that one more bounty should do it.

"You have won my heart, dealer!", he exclaimed as he stacked his chips. The same was the suit on the river and the name on her nametag. Sometimes it just takes Heart!

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

After missing out on the big pot the previous hand, Rikk Sunwoo decided to move all in preflop after a previous player pushed his stack into the middle. Larger stack Mateos Moolhuyzen was also in the mix and the three players tabled their cards.

Player 1: A♣J♠
Rikk Sunwoo: 5♣5♠
Mateos Moolhuyzen: J♦J♥

Moolhuyzen had the best of it with his two jacks, and the runout of 8♣K♥2♠K♣Q♣ kept it that way and he scooped the pot with two bounty chips as the cherry on top.
