Two Pair is Good

Livello 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Carlos Mortensen raised to 250 from under the gun and was called by the player next to act. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and Mortensen bet 400. The other player raised to 1,850 and Mortensen called. The turn brought the {q-Hearts} and Mortensen check-called his opponent's all-in bet of 800.

Mortensen: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

Mortensen's pair of tens and gutshot straight draw was trailing to the other player's aces. Unfortunately for the other player the river brought the {4-Hearts} giving Mortensen two pair and the win.

Mortensen now has 6,000 in addition to his two add-on chips.

Billirakis Flops Good

Livello 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Catching the action with five players all in, we found Steve Billirakis all in.

Billirakis: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds} to see Billirakis scoop the pot with a flopped full house as he moves to 4,850 while retaining no add-on chips.

No Win for Nguyen

Livello 2 : 50/100, 0 ante
Men Nguyen
Men Nguyen

With the board reading {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Men "The Master" Nguyen and another player got all their chips in the middle and their hands were revealed.

Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Nguyen's top two pair and straight draw was behind to the other player's straight. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn and {5-Spades} on the river were of no help to Nguyen and he was forced to use the first of his two add-on chips.

Matusow Slips

Livello 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Mike Matusow has just seen his first add-on chip felted after getting his all in on a {7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts} board.

Matusow: {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}

With Matusow drawing dead to a gutshot, the river would fall the {A-Diamonds} to see him left with just 350 and his two 3,000-chip add-on chips.

Bronshtein Flops the Nuts

Livello 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Four players including Yuval Bronshtein all put in 150 chips preflop and saw a flop of {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Everyone checked and the {4-Hearts} came on the turn. Bronshtein checked, another player bet 400 and recieved calls from Bronshtein and one other player. after the {9-Spades} came on the river Bronshtein checked again and the other two players did as well.

We're guessing Bronshtein was hoping to put in a check raise as he held the {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} for quad jacks. The other players all mucked and Bronshtein took the pot upping his stack to 6,500.
