Sam Greenwood's Monster River Bet Gets Paid

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Sam Greenwood
Sam Greenwood

Iliodoros Kamatakis opened with a raise to 3,000 before Sam Greenwood called from the small blind.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and both players checked to see the {4-Spades} on the turn. There, Greenwood checked. Kamatakis put out a bet of 4,500 and Greenwood thought for a bit before calling.

The river was the {5-Spades} and Greenwood checked again. Kamatakis fired another bet, making it 7,500. Greenwood thought for a bit, then decided to raise, and he decided to raise big, making it 40,000, more than the size of the pot.

Kamatakis dropped into the tank, expending two of his timebank chips. Eventually, he decided to call, but he mucked quickly when Greenwood showed him {A-Spades}{7-Spades} for a rivered flush. That allowed Greenwood to take down the massive pot while Kamatakis was dropped down to about half of a starting stack.

Katz Shoves the First Hand

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

"I've got a lot of pent of nittyness," Cary Katz said as he sat down at his table. "Or maybe I got it all out already."

He opened from under the gun with a raise to 2,000. Steve O'Dwyer called next to act before Matthias Eibinger raised to 7,000 from middle position. Action folded back to Katz and he called, as did O'Dwyer.

The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and action checked around to see the {K-Clubs} on the turn. Action checked to Eibinger and he put out a bet of 9,200. Katz then grabbed the majority of his stack and pushed it forward. Eibinger quickly folded, so Katz took down the pot.

Immediately after, Katz was moved to another table.
