Hennigan Shows Vieira a Flush

Livello 20

Limit Hold'em

John Hennigan raised first-to-act and was three-bet by Joao Vieira on the button. Action folded back to Vieira, who called.

Hennigan check-called a bet from Vieira on the 5♥6♠Q♣ flop and then check-raised a bet from Vieira on the 10♠ turn. Vieira called.

The 4♠ completed the board and Hennigan bet. Vieira called and Hennigan tabled K♠7♠ for a flush. Vieira couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Hennigan.

Allen Kessler: 8♠8♦/2♣10♠2♥Xx/Xx
Matt Grapenthien: A♠A♥/6♠K♠4♥K♥/6♥

Allen Kessler, all in before fourth street, found himself on the losing end of a two pair battle. Grapenthien's aces up had his eights up dominated, and he needed to improve to avoid finishing two spots short of the money.

Livello 19

Seven Card Stud

Allen Kessler: XxXx/Q♦J♠8♦9♠/Xx
Yuval Bronshtein: XxXx/A♠K♠9♦6♣ - folded on sixth street
Josh Arieh: 5♥A♦/Q♠5♠5♦4♠/Xx

Kessler was all in for his last 10,000 with his ante and told the table that he would not be looking at his cards until he had to. Bronshtein completed, with Arieh calling.

Fourth street saw Arieh bet, with Bronshtein remaining in. Both players then checked on fifth.

Sixth street saw Arieh bet once more, which caused Bronshtein to fold. Arieh had three fives, but the first card that Kessler turned over was the 10♣ to give him a straight. His 8♣ and final 6♦ were meaningless. Arieh could still eliminate him by matching his current cards, but his 7♣ kept Kessler alive.
