The 4 river landed on the felt. Michaud checked, then the cutoff fired a second barrel of 5,000.

Wasylenko has "The Best Ace High"

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Eric Wasylenko raised to 500 from under the gun and the cutoff made the call.

The flop came QQJ and both players were quick to check.

While the turn and river peeled the 85, both players checked it down.

Wasylenko's "best ace high" with AK was good enough to take it down.

Rodriguez Doubles Through Shi

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Picking up the action on the river with a sizable pot already brewing, Jose Rodriguez on the button was involved in a hand with Ruoxiao Shi in late position.
