Event #14A - Two Pair, Three Ways...Again!
 |
| Lynn Murphy |
Blinds: 100/200
According to players at a neighboring table, an interesting hand occurred near the table of the previous hand involving three players all having two pair.
On a board reading [js][10s][3c], Lynn Murphy bet 1,000 from the small blind, a player in middle position raised to 3,000, and the player on the button called. With action back on Murphy, she shoved all in, and the middle position player called. With action back on the button, he shoved all in for more than Murphy, but middle position had both of the players covered, and he called both of the all ins.
Murphy: [kc][jc] (pair of jacks)
Middle Position: [jh][10h] (top two pair)
Button: [10d][3d] (bottom two pair)
The [9c] on the turn did not change the hand, but when the river came the [kd], Murphy's two pair would take the pot, and she was awarded a full triple up.
Lynn Murphy - 23,000
Event #14A - Two Pair, Three Ways
Blinds: 100/200
On a board reading [as][js][9c], Susan Mariano bets 2,500 in the small blind, and Jay Weaving shoves all in from the big blind, and Dawn Wilensky reshoves over the top. With action back on Mariano, she tanks for a minute before folding [ac][jh] (top two pair).
Weaving shows [ah][9h] for two pair, and Wilensky shows [ad][9d] for the same two pair.
A player not involved in the hand says to Mariano, "Better to fold than to be beat," to which Wilensky shrugged her shoulders and smiled.
The [7h] came on the turn, and when the [jh] came on the river Mariano's smile lessened a big.
Wilensky apologized to Mariano and said to Weaving, "All that work for nothin."
Dawn Wilensky - 10,000
Jay Weaving - 20,000
Susan Mariano - 19,500

Blinds: 75/150
On a board reading [10h][3c][3s][ad], the small blind bets 1,125, and RJ Alexander makes it 2,700 in the big blind. The small blind calls.
The small blind checks when the river comes the [jc], and Alexander bets 3,300.
"Really?" the small blind asks.
"You keep asking me that," Alexander responds.
The small blind hesitantly calls the bet after a moment of thinking about it.
Alexander turns over [10d][10s], having flopped a full house. His opponent mucks his cards saying, "Wow, nice hand."
RJ Alexander - 28,000
