Robinson Dusts Two Shorties

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Dan Zack got it all in for 5,400, Yusuke Takahashi for 8,200, and both were at risk against Jerry Robinson, who showed {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Zack and Takahashi were sharing a high card with {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and {k-Spades}{9-Spades}, respectively so it was a great spot for Robinson and got better on the {a-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop. The {8-Hearts} turn locked it up for him and the two short-stacked players headed for the rail.

Julien Martini

It was a short stay for Julien Martini.

He called a three-bet from small blind Brock Parker out of the cutoff and saw a {6-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop. Parker bet and Martini called. On the {q-Diamonds} turn, Parker bet again and Martini called. The river was a {5-Clubs} and Parker checked. Martini bet and Parker called off his last 3,700.

Martini could only muster {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} for king-high and Parker showed {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Left with just 7,500 Martini busted minutes later.

Eli Elezra called a pre-flop all in from his opponent. Elezra held the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} against the {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} of his opponent.

The flop surged Elezra into the lead as it came the {a-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. The turn gave flush outs to his opponent as it came the {3-Spades}. But the river secured the pot and elimination for Elezra when the {8-Diamonds} fell.

Bardah Drops Two

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Ronnie Bardah bet from the small blind into two players on {10-Spades}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and only big blind Paul Volpe continued. The river was an {a-Spades} and Bardah checked. Volpe bet and Bardah seemed frustrated, calling after about a minute in the tank.

Volpe showed {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for the straight and scooped it.

The next hand, Ken Deng bet from the big blind on {4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Bardah peeled on the button. The river was a {6-Hearts} and Bardah folded to the final bet, flashing {k-}{j-}.
