Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A player from early position raised to 1,800 and the cutoff three-bet to 5,200. Anthony Marquez then cold four-bet to 14,000 from the small blind and only the cutoff called.

The flop fell K♥6♦9♥ which saw Marquez lead out for 6,500 and he was quickly raised to 25,000 by the cutoff. After a lot of deliberation, Marquez made the fold.

Marquez felt a sense of relief after the cutoff tabled K♣K♦ for top set and awarded himself a pat on the back after claiming that he folded pocket queens.

Jeff Madsen bet 6,600 from under the gun on a board of Q♦8♥10♥10♣ and a player in middle position called. Maurice Hawkins then raised to 26,500 on the button and Madsen moved all in.

The middle-position player folded, but Hawkins committed his last 28,000 and turned over 10♦2♦ for trip tens. Madsen, though, had A♥10♠ and was ahead with his ace-kicker.

"Queen, eight, or a deuce," Hawkins pleaded, but the dealer instead turned over the 3♥ on the river to send Hawkins to the rail.

"Looked like a deuce," a tablemate said as Hawkins made his exit.
