Matt Alexander
Matt Alexander

Matt Alexander got his last 70,000 or so in preflop, we were told, but his {10-}{10-} was crushed by the {a-}{a-} of Brett Reichard. The aces held and the last of the Mid-States Poker Tour Team Pros has been eliminated.

Kregelka Cracks Aces

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Roger Kregelka
Roger Kregelka

Allan Haupert checked a board of {5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} in the cutoff, and Roger Kregelka bet an unknown amount. Haupert moved all in and Kregelka snap-called for about 80,000.

Kregelka: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Haupert: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

Kregelka had it locked up already with a flush and the meaningless river was a {k-Diamonds}.

To Nails the Flop

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

David To opened to 8,500 and got one call before the small blind shipped for 51,500. To called, and the third player folded.

To: {k-}{q-}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

To took a huge lead on the {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop, and though the {a-Clubs} turn gave his opponent hope, the {j-Diamonds} was a brick on the river.

Jerry Gumila
Jerry Gumila

A player shoved all in for approximately 30,000 in the cutoff, and Jerry Gumila called in the big blind.

Gumila: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

No sweat for Gumila as he flopped a set and had his opponent dead on the turn.

Komberec Fades Outs

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

We found Ken Komberec all in on a {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{q-Clubs} board in a blind battle holding {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for bottom set. The big blind had {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} but missed his combo draw as the {6-Spades} turn was followed by a {7-Diamonds} river.

Nasty Beat for Rogers

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Kirby Rogers put his last 27,000 in from middle position and got called by Ryne Johnson, the small blind. Rogers peeked at his cards and turned over {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}, saying he had only looked at one so Johnson got pretty unlucky. Johnson showed the {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}. The dealer fanned a {9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop, and the {j-Clubs} hit the turn to give Johnson a chance with a flush draw.

"It's always the jack of clubs," Rogers said.

The river: a {10-Clubs}, giving Johnson a flush.

"Nice hand," Rogers said.

Azulay White-Hot Early

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Yossi Azulay came into the day with about 10 big blinds but he has quickly found himself among the leaders.

In the biggest pot he has dragged, he three-bet from the big blind against an open and a small blind call. With the board reading {2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, we found Azulay facing an all-in shove from the small blind for 78,000. He thought about a minute and dropped enough to call into the middle.

Azulay: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Small blind: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Azulay had his foe crushed and the river was a {7-Diamonds}.
