Chufarin and Alt Battle It Out

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A flop of 3♦A♠4♣ was spread and four players were still in contention to win the pot of 2,000 chips. After two checks, Denys Chufarin was the one to bet 500 from middle position. Dinesh Alt made the call from the cutoff, as did the big blind.

The turn then fell the 3♥ and the big blind checked. Chufarin bet another 2,000 and this time only Alt made the call.

Chufarin slowed down on the 10♣ river with a check. Alt responded with a bet of 4,200 and sent Chufarin into the tank. Eventually, he folded, laughing, stating how hard it is to have a bluff in Alt's position.

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

After an open by Heidi Heimarck in early position got called by a player in middle position, Clara Batiste defended her big blind.

On the flop K♦9♥J♦, Heimarck continued for 2,400 and Batiste was the only one to call. When a third diamond came on the turn with the 4♦, Batiste checked and Heimarck checked back. On the river 5♥, they both checked as well.

At the showdown, Heimarck showed A♥A♠. She thought she had the win for a second, before Batiste revealed A♦8♦ for the nut flush.

Sugar Joint for Buckner

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Steven Buckner raised it up in middle position and picked up three callers along the way including Hye Park on his left. The flop came 5♦4♦2♥ and Buckner continued with a bet of 1,600. Park called and the other players folded.

"Leave me alone, this hand might take a while," Buckner spouted at someone who was trying to talk to him nearby.

The turn was the J♣ and Buckner sized up a bet of 7,000. Park thought for a moment but decided to lay his hand down. Buckner turned over 6♥3♥ for a straight and then went on a rant.

"You see that, cuz? Raising with six-three and flopping the joint. If you got a flush draw, let's play for it all! I'm not greedy, but no free cards around here. I flopped the sugar joint, cuz!"

Robbie Jade Lew was heads-up to the river of a board showing 9♣K♥6♠9♠J♦.

Lew was first to act and slid out a bet of 3,000, producing an eventual fold from the player to her left.

Lew smiled and turned over 6♣6♦ for a full house, unable to get paid on the river, but still adding chips to her stack.

Little Shows the Goods

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

There was a late position open to 700. It then folded to Bruce Little in the small blind who put in the cold three-bet to 1,900. The big blind then cold called the three-bet and the late position player called.

The 6♠K♥J♥ flop landed and Little led out for 3,700. The big blind called again and the late position player folded.

The turn brought a 10♠ and Little led again for 6,000. This time the big blind couldn't hold on any longer and laid it down.

Little smiled and showed A♠K♠ for top-top, a gutter, and the nut flush draw. He dragged the pot and got above starting stack for the first time today.

A Set is Good for McDaniel

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Three players saw a flop of 10♣7♠8♦ and action was checked around.

The turn came 2♥. It was checked to the hijack, who bet 2,600 and Patrick McDaniel, in middle position, called.

The river fell 5♦. McDaniel tabled 8♠8♥ and on a board with plenty of possible straights, it was good enough to take the pot.
