Spindler Rivers Better Pair

Keven Stammen limped in from the button, and Benny Spindler checked his option in the big blind to see the flop come down {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}. Both players checked.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}, and Spindler checked. Stammen bet 55,000, and Spindler called.

The river was the {K-Hearts}, and Spindler checked. Stammen fired 105,000, and Spindler called.

Stammen showed the {J-Clubs}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens, but lost to Spindler's {K-Clubs}{2-Spades} for a pair of kings.

Spindler bet 175,000 and Stammen raised to 400,000. Spindler made the call and the dealer flipped the {K-Clubs} on the river. Spindler checked and Stammen pushed in a stack of 730,000.

He Just Keeps Doubling

Benny Spindler raised to 60,000 pre-flop and Keven Stammen three-bet to 175,000. Spindler four-bet all in and Stammen made the call.

Spindler: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Stammen: {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}

Once again Stammen went all in with a small pair while Spindler's ace king needed to hit the board. Spindler hoped that this time it would. The dealer opened the {2-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} on the flop giving no ace and no king for Spindler. The {2-Hearts} on the turn gave Stammen a second pair and the {10-Hearts} on the river was of no use for anyone.

This time Stammen not only doubled up, but took away the chip lead from Spindler for the first time since the two started the heads-up play.
