Flop a Set, Lose the Chiplead


John Schray, Jerry Siemienas and George Tomasevich all come along to see the Kc Kc Kc flop. Siemienas makes it 44,000 on the Kc turn, Schray calls, then Tomasevich moves all in for his last 64,100.

This is where the fun begins.

Siemienas then announces he's all in for another 100k, but before action can take place there's the question whether Siemienas can reopen the betting, as the shove from Tomasevich is for just 20,100 more than the 44,000 bet by Siemienas.

People start questioning is it more than half the raise, it is enough, etc, and RozTheTD comes over to explain Siemienas cannot raise.
"Half teh bet is limit poker, in no limit it has to be a full raise."

"Well then, I guess I call," says Siemienas, and Schray - chipleader on the redraw - makes the call as well.

The river is Kc, Siemienas shoves and Schray asys, "Well, I guess I fold," as he shows Kc Kc for a flopped set.

"I have a straight, sir," says Tomasevich to Schray as he shows Kc Kc for a flopped open-ender that got there on the turn.

Siemienas turns over Kc Kc - the same broadway hand - and they'll chop up the pot.

Jerry Siemienas - 245,000
John Schray - 125,000
George Tomasevich - 125,000

There was a LevelUp as I wrote this, so action is now at

Level - 15
Blinds - 1500/3k
Antes - 500
Remaining - 26/170

Henry Survives, Then Busts the Bubble

Image
No all-in-and-a-call for 27 hands, now there's action on back-to-back hands at Table 30. Henry Zou and Parm Soni are going at it, Zou at risk. Zou has Queens and has run in to Kings. There's a Queen in the window, no King comes on the turn or river, and Henry gets his double, leaving Soni now as the shortstack with about 6BB. Both players get their stacks in the middle preflop on the very next hand, Zou with AQ and Soni with Sixes. There's an Ace in the window this time, Zou flops his card each time. Soni cannot recover and Soni is the money bubble. 29 hands on the bubble today. Players are taking a 10-minute break, staff is coloring up the 100s and everyone is in the money. Level - 17 Blinds - 2500/5k Antes - 500 Remaining - 23/183 -- Dan Ross
