It's Good to Be King

Jeffrey King
Jeffrey King

Jeffrey King completed from the small blind, and Derric Haynie checked from the big blind. The flop came {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. King checked, Haynie bet 40,000, and King called. Both then checked the {10-Hearts} turn.

The river was the {5-Clubs}. King bet 80,000 this time, and Haynie called. King tabled {J-}{7-} for sevens, and Haynie mucked.

King has 2.83 million, while Haynie is now fourth of four with about 700,000.

Haynie Bets Out King

Action folded to Jeffrey King in the small blind who raised to 80,000. Derric Haydie called from the big.

The dealer fanned {j-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and King led for 165,000. Haydie called.

Both players checked the {10-Diamonds} on the turn, and King again checked after the {k-Clubs} rivered. Haydie took the opportunity to bet 300,000 and King folded.

Dirksen All In, All Decline

Derric Haynie raised to 90,000 from under the gun, and Dustin Dirksen quickly pushed all in from the button for 910,000.

Steven Kelly tanked for some time from the small blind, but stepped aside. And Jeffrey King and Haynie both skedaddles with less contemplation.

Dirksen moves to 1.18 million.

Derric Haynie raised to 90,000 with the button and Steven Kelly defended his big blind. The flop fell {2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and both players checked.

The two checked the {3-Spades} on the turn as well, but after the {j-Spades} rivered Kelly led for 75,000. Haynie folded and Kelly was shipped the pot.

King Still King as Level 8 Begins

We had about a 10-minute break there between levels for a chip color up. Here's what the new stacks -- minus those yellow (1,000) chips -- look like:

Jeffrey King -- 2.72 million
Steven Kelly -- 1.45 million
Dustin Dirksen -- 1.14 million
Derric Haynie -- 905,000

Level: 8

Blinds: 20,000/40,000

Ante: 5,000

A Few for Dirksen

Jeffrey King opened with a raise to 80,000, and both Derric Haynie (SB) and Dustin Dirksen (BB) called.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Haynie checked, and Dirksen led for 150,000. King considered a moment, then folded, and Haynie quickly released his hand as well.

Dirksen edges to 1.1 million, but is still essentially in a three-way tie with Haynie and Steven Kelly, while King has about half the 6.3 million chips in play.
