Bruce the Bully Bags Another

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We caught up on this hand with the flop reading {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and the player known only as "Bruce" holding the button. After a bet of 5,700 by an opponent in the hijack position, "Bruce" made the call and the dealer turned the {4-Clubs}.

The hijack elected to check this time and "Bruce" fired a bet of 11,000 into the middle. His opponent quickly surrendered and our mystery man padded his stack.

Lunkin and Flack Duking it Out

On his big blind, Vitaly Lunkin decided to raise the action to 3,600 and Layne Flack came along for the ride from middle position.

Flop: {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Lunkin led out for a pot-sized bet, Flack instantly mucked his hand and the Russian pro took it down in this battle between multiple bracelet winners.

Griffin-dor Picks One Off

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We caught up with the action on an {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop where Gavin Griffin checked as did his opponent. On the {J-Hearts} turn, Griffin bet 4,100 and was called. Griffin bet again on the {8-Diamonds} river, this time for 9,600. Instead of just calling though, he was met with a raise to 21,000. Griffin took a few moments but finally called and his opponent showed {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a stone cold bluff. Griffin turned over {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} for top pair top kicker and scooped the pot. The pot vaulted him up to 126,800.

Fohrenbach Fighting Back

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ricky Fohrenbach raised to 3,200 from the hijack and found one customer in the big blind.

The flop ran out {10-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} and it was checked to Fohrenbach, who c-bet to 3,800. His opponent cut out a raise to 10,000 and stuck it in the middle.

"About forty back?" Fohrenbach asked, referring to his opponent's remaining chips. "Yeah," he replied.

Fohrenbach then put enough chips into the middle to put his opponent all-in, sending him into the tank. After thinking and re-checking his cards several time, Fohrenbach's opponent eventually mucked. Fohrenbach mucked without showing.

Fohrenbach is currently sitting at 77,000.

Turner Climbs

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jon Turner opened under the gun to 3,400 and was called by the hijack before the big blind moved all in for roughly 26,000. Turner made the call as the hijack folded.

Turner: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

With Turner in great shape, the {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board would see him pushed the pot to send him over 144,000 while also eliminating his opponent.

Insinna Insta-Calls With Cowboys

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

After the flop fell {Q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, Joseph Insinna checked to his opponent and heard exactly what he was hoping for, an announcement of "all-in."

Insinna instantly called and turned over his {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}, hearing his opponent exclaim "dang it, that's a nice hand sir" while tabling his {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. The overpair of Insinna was far ahead of his opponent's top pair, top kicker and we were down to the last two cards.

Turn: {8-Hearts}
River: {4-Hearts}

With that, Insinna's pocket pair had dispatched another player from the tournament.

Three players saw the flop of {Q-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} for 3,500 - one of which was Gavin Griffin in the small blind.

The preflop raiser checked as the player caught in the middle fired out 3,500. With Griffin feigning weakness with his quick check, he quickly dashed those thoughts when he made it 8,600 to go.

Both the active players folded and Griffin collected the pot to move to 96,000 in chips.

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

The final board rolled out {J-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Riley took the pot, eliminating his opponent in the process.
