Nível 8

A player in the hijack bet the 4♠J♦5♥ flop and was called by Jon Maren in the small blind and Ismael Bojang in early position.

The turn came the 10♥ and the hijack bet again, with both opponents calling to see the Q♣ river.

Only Bojang called a bet this time as the hijack tossed over his A♠3♠ in frustration, having missed a straight and low draw. Bojang turned over 10♠7♣J♠9♠ for two pair to win the pot.

Nível 8

John Muscianes raised from middle position and was called by Barry Greenstein next to act and an opponent in the big blind.

The flop came 8♣9♠4♦ and action checked to Greenstein who fired out a bet. Only Muscianes called to see the 5♠ turn, where Greenstein bet again.

Muscianes called and the 7♠ fell on the river. He checked again and Greenstein quickly checked back.

Muscianes let out a groan as he showed A♠2♣4♠K♠. "Nut low and a flush," he announced.

Greenstein spent a moment looking back at his cards before sending them into the muck.

Action folded to Logan Trindade on the button who elected to come in for a raise. The small blind tossed in a call and the big blind folded before the deal spread a flop of J♦4♣10♥.

Action checked through to the Qx turn card, prompting both players to check through to the river which came the A♣.

Action checked through one last time before Trindade turned up the A♠6♣4♥2♠ which was good enough to scoop the pot.

Allen Kessler had folded the previous hand in such a way that drew comment from his tablemates. "I don't believe it. Your first drama fold after 35 years," Ari Engel said.

"You make a drama fold. I'll make a drama call," Engel continued as he called a raise from Mike Garner. Ben Vidal also came along from the big blind.

The flop came 10♥A♦10♦ and Vidal bet out, which only Garner called. Vidal check-called a bet on the 9♣ turn.

The river came the 7♦ and Garner continued betting. Vidal called and Garner opened up A♥10♠ for the flopped full house. Vidal flashed the 10♣ before mucking.

Nível 9

Action folded to the cutoff who came in for a raise and was called by both the button and Brent Neville in the small blind to see a flop of 10♠9♣3♠.

Neville checked to the cutoff who tossed in a bet and again received a call from both the button and Neville, leading to a 4♠ on the turn.
