Nível 5 : 400/800, 0 ante

There was plenty of laughter to hear from Yevgeniy Timoshenko and JC Tran, and plenty of banter emerged on their table between James Calderaro and Iraj Parvizi. Apparently, the latter had just doubled through the former in a big pot, and Calderaro joked, "I don't want to say I got it in in a bad way. It was a shit way."

"You want to finish me off?" Calderaro asked and raised the next hand to 2,800. Parvizi called on the button, and the flop came . Calderaro bet 3,000, and Parvizi called. "I check, I can't beat the nuts," Calderaro announced before the appeared on the turn. Parvizi checked back, and the river completed the board. Calderaro bet 5,000, and Parvizi folded, before Calderaro said, "I had a flush draw," while flashing .

The outcome? Parvizi is among the chip leaders while Calderaro dropped well below the starting stack.

Chop it Up

[user38873]

Nível 5 : 400/800, 0 ante

On a four-way flop of , Zorlu Er bet 8,000 from the button, and Jan-Peter Jachtmann check-raised to 25,000 from the small blind. That forced out Anthony Zinno, in the big blind, and Michael Huntress, under the gun, before Er raised the pot. Jachtmann moved all in, and Er called.

Jan-Peter Jachtmann:
Zorlu Er:

Both players had flopped a full house, and neither one had a redraw to a better hand, having blocked each other's outs. Jachtmann shrugged and smiled while the meaningless turn and river completed the board.

Jachtmann dropped to just below the starting stack, while Er is back to exactly the starting stack after the hand.
