Turner Takes it on River

No-Limit Hold'em

Phil Hellmuth opened to 12,000 from under the gun, receiving calls from Jon "PearlJammer" Turner (cutoff) and Alexandre Luneau (small blind). The dealer fanned {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}, all three players checked, and the turn brought the {5-Clubs}. Luneau led for 27,000, and received two calls.

The river was the {9-Hearts}, and the action checked to Turner who fired 42,000. Both players folded, and Turner raked in the pot.

Stud

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier won Event #21: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship. The French PokerStars pro bested a field of 126 runners, taking home $331,639 and his first gold bracelet. He just tangled with the 2009 $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. winner David Bach in a stud hand, where the Frenchman displayed his prowess.

David Bach: (X)(X) / {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} / (X)
Grospellier: (X)(X) / {8-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} / (X)

Bach completed, Grospellier raised, and Bach called. Back called a bet from Grospellier on fourth street, then led on fifth when he made a pair of sevens. Grospellier called.

Grospellier made a better pair on sixth, but decided to just check-call, and did the same on seventh.

Bach opened up {9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for just a pair of sevens, Grospellier showed {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for kings and jacks, and the reigning Stud World Champion won the pot.

A Rivet-ing Hand

Livello 12

Stud-8

A big three-way Stud-8 hand over on Table 291 just drew our attention involving Guillaume Rivet, David Bach, and Brett Richey. We picked up the action on fifth street, when the betting was capped (a bet plus four raises). On sixth street, Bach bet, Richey called, and Rivet called with his last 6,500. Bach and Richey then checked seventh.

Rivet: (X)(X) / {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{4-Spades} / (X)
Bach: (X)(X) / {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} / (X)
Richey: (X)(X) / {5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} / (X)

Richey turned over {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{A-Clubs}, meaning he had trip queens for high and no low. Bach showed {K-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Hearts} for two pair and no low. And Rivet showed {K-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} for a spade flush and a low to boot, enabling him to scoop the huge pot.

Rivet rockets to 360,000 with that one, while Bach slips to 400,000. Richey fell to 55,000, but doubled back on the next hand and now sits with about 115,000.

Stud-8

Abe Mosseri: (X)(X) / {2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} FOLDED
Sorel Mizzi: (X)(X) / {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds} / (X)
Doug Booth: (X)(X) / {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades}{a-Hearts} / (X)

When we arrived at the table, the players were on fifth street, and Schulman was already all in. Mizzi tossed out a bet, Booth called, and Mosseri folded.

Booth made a better board on sixth with the {a-Hearts}, and led out. Mizzi called. Booth led again on seventh, and without hesitation, Mizzi called.

Schulman happily opened {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts} for a full house, and Booth tabled {4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{a-Spades} for a pair of aces and a six-five low. Mizzi didn't do anything for the better part of a minute, opting to sit silently as Schulman and Booth waited for him to either open his cards or muck.

"Open your hand, Sorel," Mosseri urged him.

He obliged, tabling {k-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, and after a bit of rearranging, the dealer saw that he had a better six-five low than Booth. This sparked controversy.

"Abe, you never tell a guy to open their hand," Erick Lindgren piped up. "He could've mucked."

"I was going to open," Mizzi assured him.

"We don't know that," Lindgren responded.

"Yeah, who knows," Booth interjected. "Maybe he has a piece of him."

"I don't have a piece of him," Mosseri shot back.

The issue lingered after the hand, and one of the only people not to offer their opinion was Schulman, who happily stacked his newfound chips.

Razz

Carlos Mortensen completed with a {3-} up, Fabrice Soulier raised all in with a {4-} showing, Brian Hastings called with his {7-} and Mortensen called as well.

Mortensen would lead the next two streets with Hastings calling, then they'd check it down to seventh.

Soulier: (X)(X) / {4-}{4-}{3-}{2-} / (X)
Mortensen: (X)(X) / {3-}{6-}{J-}{10-} / (X)
Hastings: (X)(X) / {7-}{9-}{K-}{8-} / (X)

Hastings' up cards weren't too pretty, but his down ones were as he tabled {A-}{2-}{5-} for a 9-7. Soulier had {K-}{8-}{3-} underneath for a K-low, and Mortensen mucked.

Soulier is out, while Hastings has about 600,000 now.

Seiver led again on sixth, both of his opponents again called, and all three players checked on seventh. Seiver opened up {5-}{4-}{10-} for a seven-six, and his two opponents mucked.
