"brunocasadei" Gets There for Huge Pot

Level 6 : 125/250, 30 ante
"brunocasadei" Gets There for Huge Pot
"brunocasadei" Gets There for Huge Pot

It was all-in three ways before the flop with "brunocasadei" playing {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} against {a-Spades}{10-Clubs} for "Igot2loveyou" and pocket kings for "Alexhest383", who was all in at risk, as was "brunocasadei". The board of {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} ran out to four clubs, giving "brunocasadei" the nut flush after starting with the worst of it. "Alexhest383" jumped back in with another stack of 20,000.

"Igot2loveyou" Gets There with Two Pair

Level 6 : 125/250, 30 ante

"Alexhest383" raised under the gun, and got called by both players in the blind. It checked to them on the {5-Spades}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, and they fired 1,019. Only "Igot2loveyou" called from the small blind. They both checked the {3-Diamonds} turn, but when it checked to "Alexhest383" on {q-Hearts} river, they bet 2,364.

"Igot2loveyou" tanked for a bit and threw a thumbs up emote to chat. "AQ obv" they said in chat before making the call.

"Igot2loveyou": {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
"Alexhest383": {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Board: {5-Spades}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The prediction of "Igot2loveyou" was only half true, and their two pair was ahead of the pair of aces.

"Alexhest383" Takes Another One

Level 4 : 75/150, 20 ante

It was limped to four ways to the {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop. "Igot2loveyou" was the first to stab at the flop from the middle, and "Alexhest383" raised to 660. They got called by "brunocasadei" in the big blind as well as "Igot2loveyou". The {4-Hearts} saw another check from "brunocasadei", a bet of 450 from "Igot2loveyou", and calls from both players. When the river came {9-Spades} they all checked to "Alexhest383", then folded to a bet of 2,712.
