Hero Call Goes Wrong For Honkonen Against Piderit

David Salituro

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Charles Honkonen bet 2,500 from middle position on a flop of 7♥3♦2♠ and Caleb Piderit raised to 6,500 in early position. Honkonen called and they saw the Q♥ fall on the turn.

Piderit then bet 4,500 and Honkonen again called. The river was the Q♠ and Piderit bet 21,000, enough to put Honkonen all in. Honkonen leaned back in his seat and tanked for a minute before calling for his last chips.

Piderit turned over 2♥2♦ for a full house and Honkonen tossed A♣2♣ into the muck on his way to the exit.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Michael Johns moved all in for 10,500 from middle position and Ekrem Bozkurt put him at risk in the big blind.

Michael Johns: 7♦7♣ All in
Ekrem Bozkurt: Q♣Q♥

"Don't do that," Bozkurt joked as Johns got up out of his seat.

"Put your headphones back in their case," another tablemate said to Johns, who needed help against Bozkurt's queens but couldn't improve on the A♠5♥4♥4♠8♠ board and was sent to the rail.

"Everyone keeps jamming into him. The kid's hot," Eric Siegel said about Bozkurt.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Alexey Ruzin bet 3,000 from the cutoff on a flop of J♣10♣9♠ and Eric Piderit moved all in for 34,300 under the gun. Ruzin called without noticing that Michael Liang had yet to act in early position. Liang ended up calling and Ruzin's initial call stood.

The turn was the 3♥ and Liang moved all in for an additional 2,000. Ruzin called and turned over K♥Q♥, while Liang had 10♥10♦ for a set and Piderit had 5♣2♣ for a flush draw.

"I said I wanted to loosen the table up, but not this much," Piderit said as the river came the K♣, completing his flush and earning him a triple up while Ruzin took the last of Liang's chips in the side pot.
