Joe Toney
Joe Toney

Ryan Rummonds got the action started with an open to 2,000 from the hijack. Roderick Lejat from the cutoff, Derrick Geliberte on the button, Derrick Geliberte from the small blind, and Kao Saevang out of the big blind all made the call to create a crowd as they took a flop.

It checked to Saevang on the 910Q flop before he went all-in for 5,400. Rummonds and Toney both made the call as the rest of the table folded.

The Q turn led to a check from Rummonds. Toney bet 6,000, and Rummonds made the call.

Both remaining players checked the A river to go to a showdown.

Rummonds showed 109 for a flopped two-pair, but it was no good as Toney showed Q6 for trip queens.

Saevang had the best hand overall when he tabled KJ for a flopped straight to take down the pot.

Marie Batoon made it 600 from the cutoff before Ricardo Lazo called on the button. Allan Capurro defended his big blind to create a three-handed pot as they went to a flop.

Both remaining players checked the 6 river. Batoon showed A4 for a missed flush draw as she was left with ace high.

It was no good as Lazo revealed AJ for a pair of jacks to take down the small pot.
