Stammen Turns the King

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player jammed under the gun for 19,800 and Keven Stammen called in the cutoff.

Keven Stammen: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Under the gun: {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}

The {4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop brought nothing for "Stammdogg" but the {k-Spades} was exactly what he needed. The {2-Clubs} was of no consequence on the river and Stammen softly patted the table.

Reichard Folds at the Buzzer

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

We found Josh Reichard on the button facing a massive shove of 92,300 from a player in the hijack. The pot was only about 50,000 and the board read {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Reichard counted out calling chips and tried to get something out of his opponent with table talk.

"Wouldn't have much left," he said with a smile, nodding at his remaining chips behind the 92,300.

"Come on, man," TK Miles said from across the table. "If you say anything else I'm gonna call the clock."

"What does that have to do with calling the clock?" Reichard wondered.

"OK, clock."

The supervisor told Reichard he had 25 seconds, and at the close of that 25 seconds, Reichard flicked in his cards.

Pupillo Busts Raymer Over Two Hands

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Greg Raymer
Greg Raymer

Nick Pupillo bet 5,200 from the small blind on {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Greg Raymer called in the big. On the {9-Hearts} turn, Pupillo bet 12,000 and Raymer again called. The river was a {q-Diamonds} and Pupillo fired a final shell for 22,000. Raymer called once more and Pupillo opened {q-Hearts}{j-Spades} for the turned nuts.

"Good catch," Raymer said softly. "Nice turn."

Two hands later, Pupillo opened and called a shove from Raymer for his remaining 17,000 or so. Raymer had {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} but couldn't fade {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} as it ran {q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

Cody Brinn: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The river was a {10-Clubs} and Brinn headed for the exits.
