You Take It

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

JC Tran bet 11,500 into a 20,000-chip pot on the river with the board reading {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}.

After a minute in the tank, Scott Seiver cut out a call and placed the chips right in front of Tran. Tran then moved both the bet and the call back in front of Seiver and moved to muck his hand. Seiver tabled {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} to pick up the pot.

Nguyen Steamrolling

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante
Power poker with Don Nguyen.
Power poker with Don Nguyen.

Don Nguyen is punishing the unlucky few who drew seats at his table today.

He recently opened to 4,900 and got a single caller in Michel Abecassis. Then after Abecassis checked the {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, Nguyen forced him to fold with a 4,500 chip continuation bet.

Level: 13

Blinds: 1,200/2,400

Ante:

Zaichenko Ousted

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Andrey Zaichenko had a short Day 2.
Andrey Zaichenko had a short Day 2.

Timothy Adams opened to 4,000 in the cutoff and was called by the player on the button. Andrey Zaichenko potted from the blinds, and Adams announced a repot. The player on the button folded, and Zaichenko put in his last 10,000 or so.

Zaichenko: {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Adams: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The {7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{10-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} run out gave Adams first a higher pair, then the nut flush.

Slow Rolling

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Mike Matusow.
Mike Matusow.

Mike Matusow is sitting on a nice stack and telling everyone he's planning to play quite snug right now. But while the chips may not be flying, the conversation at his table certainly is.

In recounting the infamous hand where Shaun Deeb slow rolled Matusow with quads in a cash game taped for Poker Night in America, Matusow claimed slow rolling is his taboo in life and would never do it to anyone.

A few seats over, Justin Bonomo chimed in, saying he's only slow rolled one person in his life and it was Men "The Master" Nguyen.

"If I was going to slow roll anyone it would probably be him," Matusow added.

Double For Rheem

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Blake Barousse raised to 4,000 and Chino Rheem three-bet from his left to 15,000. The action folded back to Barousse who put his opponent all in and Rheem snap-called.

Rheem: {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Barousse: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {3-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and Rheem doubled up. Despite losing this hand Barousse's still up from his starting chip count.
