Farrell Is Suspicious of Hanks

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Brent Hanks was in middle position and called a bet of around 2,000 from button Niall Farrell on a flop of {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Both players checked the {a-Diamonds} turn.

"I'm done checking now, I think," Hanks said as the dealer turned over the {4-Clubs}. Hanks bet 3,500 and Farrell folded.

"Very disciplined laydown," Hanks told Farrell.

"Very suspicious," Farrell replied.

Romano's Aces Become a Kicker

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Jay Romano was ahead in a classic preflop all in cooler with {a-}{a-} vs {k-}{k-} of his opponent.

The board would keep Romano ahead in an unconventional way as it ran out {9-}{2-}{9-}{9-}{9-} to give both players quad nines but the ace kicker of Romano ousted the player holding the king kicker as he got up and left the table while Romano stacked the big pot.

Everett Carlton

Everett Carlton hit the rail during Level 2 and players at the table filled PokerNews in on the action that led to his demise.

Carlton held {a-}{a-} but his opponent had {q-}{q-} and had flopped a set. Carlton couldn't improve as the board ran out {10-}{3-}.

Carlton was left with just 6,000 after the hand and busted shortly after.
