David "CountStacula" Powers Draws Blood On Fortunate River

Level 6 : 200/400, 0 ante
Powers Rivers Boat
Powers Rivers Boat

Ben "LittleC_88" Covello limped on the button and Kyle "RonySeikaly" Cartwright called out of the small blind. David "CountStacula" Powers raised from the big blind to 1,600 and received calls from both of his opponents.

Action checked to Powers on the {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} flop and he continued for 4,800. Covello responded with a raise to 19,200, enough to force Cartwright out of the hand. Powers was going nowhere, however, and called off for his remaining 5,800.

David Powers: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Ben Covello: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}

Powers had been coolered, flopping the second nuts to Covello's stone cold nuts. He could, however, pull ahead were the board to pair. He could find no help on the {6-Spades} turn but the {10-Spades} improved Powers to a full house, sending the sizable pot his direction.

Ben "LittleC_88" Covello limped from under the gun and Kyle "RonySeikaly" Cartwright raised to 900 from one seat over. Jake "SamPanzica" Schwartz called on the button as did Toby "DustPistons" Lewis in the small blind and Covello.

On the {4-Spades}{j-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop action checked to Schwartz, who led out for a pot sized bet of 3,900. Lewis responded with a raise to 15,600, which Covello called. Cartwright folded to send the action back to Schwartz, who shoved for 18,125. Lewis called, leaving himself just 1,200 behind as did Covello.

Action checked through the {q-Hearts} turn and Lewis pushed his remaining chips into the middle on the {a-Clubs} river and Covello made the call. Lewis held {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for the turned full house, good enough to scoop the large pot and send Schwartz packing.

"YOSSIOBADIA" sends Michael "Railbird101" Dolle to the rail

Level 4 : 125/250, 0 ante
Dolle Sent to the Rail
Dolle Sent to the Rail

Michael "Railbird101" Dolle limped from middle position and "YOSSIOBADIA" raised to 500 from the button. "wwkc22" three-bet to 1,625 out of the small blind and both Dolle and "YOSSIOBADIA" called to send action three-way to the flop.

"wwkc22" led out for 1,300 on a flop of {7-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Spades} and Dolle shoved for 4,384. "YOSSIOBADIA" re-jammed his stack of 19,557 to put Dolle at risk and "wwkc22" folded.

Michael Dolle: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
YOSSIOBADIA: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Dolle was ahead with his top set but his opponent had the nut flush draw, a draw that came in on the {5-Spades} turn. Dolle would need the board to pair to survive but was unable to do so on the {3-Spades} river.

"EL_JEFFE" Rivers Broadway

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
"EL_JEFFE" Survives
"EL_JEFFE" Survives

Martin "Bathroomline" Zamani opened to 700 from under the gun and was three-bet to 1,800 by "EL_JEFFE" one seat over. John "Macallan25" Riordan called from the cutoff and, once the blinds got out of the way, Zamani followed suit.

On a flop of {a-Spades}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs} Zamani checked to "EL_JEFFE" who continued their preflop aggression with a bet of 4,050. Riordan called and Zamani folded to send action heads-up to the turn.

"El_JEFFE" moved all in for their last 9,706 on the {j-Clubs} turn and Riordan snap called with the larger stack.

EL_JEFFE: {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
John Riordan: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

Riordan was ahead and held a superior flush draw to eliminate many of "EL_JEFFE"s outs. The {q-Diamonds} river, however, gave "EL_JEFFE" a straight, doubling them up and leaving Riordan short.

Zamani Off To Quick Start

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Zamani Extends Lead
Zamani Extends Lead

Martin "Bathroomline" Zamani has gotten off to a red-hot start, emerging as the early chipleader. Zamani opened to 337 from under the gun and was three-bet to 1,236 by "yoodillpickl" on the button. Matthew "mendey" Mendez called out of the big blind, as did Zamani, to send action three-way to the flop.

Mendez led out for 1,655 on a flop of {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. Zamani called and "yoodillpickl" folded.

Mendez slowed down on the {10-Diamonds} turn, checking to Zamani, who fired off a pot sized bet of 7,093. That was enough to convince Mendez to let go of his hand, sending a sizable pot Zamani's way.
