Maridu's Roller Coaster

With the board reading {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, Ben Wilinofsky bet 3,000 into Maria "Maridu" Mayrinck. She moved all in and he called.

Showdown
Mayrinck: {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Wilinofsky: {6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

The {10-Clubs} on the turn was a horrible card for Maridu and all she could hope for was a chop. The {5-Hearts} on the river wouldn't suffice, and she slipped to 8,100 chips. Wilinofsky doubled to 14,000 chips.

A few hands later a Maridu got all her chips in holding aces after flatting an initial raise. and Wilinofsky called with jacks. The original raiser folded queens.

The board ran {8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{A-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Maridu doubled back to 16,250 chips. It was Wilinofsky's turn to slip, falling below starting stack to 6,500 chips.
