Blind on blind, Merved made it 1,000 from the small, only for Devilfish to make it another 2,000. Call. The flop came and Merved took a moment to check, possibly knowing what was coming. Nevertheless, check he did, and then folded to a 5,000 bet from Devilfish, showing the as he did so.
In this hand it was folded around to Cory Albertson on the button who raised, and Juha Vilkki called before a flop came .
Both players checked before the turn came . This time Vilkki check-called a bet of 1,200 from Albertson.
The river saw Albertson move all in after it was checked to him a third time. Vilkki stood up and made the call all in, but quickly left the area when Albertson revealed for a turned set.
Albertson is up to 27,300 now.
David Booth opened from the button, Daniel Negreanu called from the small blind and the big blind came along as well. The flop was . Negreanu bet 1,200.
"Is this where you 'float' me?" teased Negreanu. "I'm learning your lingo."
Booth made the call.
The turn was the and Negreanu bet another 2,600. Booth called again. The river fell the . Negreanu considered for a moment before firing out another 5,200.
"It's too late, you can't float on the river. Hard to float if I bet every street!" laughed Negreanu.
"I think you know what I have," said Booth quietly.
"Honestly, I have no idea what you have. I really don't!" replied Negreanu.
Booth's cards went into the muck and Negreanu collected the pot.
"Seriously, I really didn't know," he said as he stacked his chips.
Flop: -- check, check.
Turn: -- now Kolstad bet out, and Nguyen called behind.
River: and it was check, check again.
Nguyen turned over for two pair -- and was very surprised to see Kolstad flip over an outdrawn .
When I asked Kolstad for his name, he took out his credit card to show me how it was spelled. Piped up Scotty, "You haven't win yet and they already ask you for ID."
Townsend sits with approximately 27,000 in chips after the hand.
Medic check-called a 1,200 bet and then a 2,300 on the flop and on the turn respectively before Langmann slowed down on the river of and checked behind Medic.
Medic tabled and Langmann insta-folded. Medic is steadily growing and is up to 31,000.
