Langevin Makes a "Donation" to Hibbs

David Salituro

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Around 20,000 was in the pot as John Langevin and Douglas Hibbs went to the turn on a board of A♠Q♠5♠10♣. Langevin then bet 21,500 from the button and Hibbs called in middle position.

The river was the K♥ and Hibbs moved all in for 18,700. Langevin took around a minute before flicking in a chip to signify a call.

Hibbs turned over K♠10♠. "Just the nuts, huh," Langevin said as he tossed A♥Q♣ into the muck.

"Ace-queen with the king on the river? That's a donation," a tablemate said.

"There was like 90,000 in the pot. What do you want from me? Do you fold there for 18,000?" Langevin replied as the players headed off on break.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Aaron Fuller was all-in and at risk for only 6,700 with the A♠4♠ and at risk against Daniel Retallick with the dominating A♥Q♣.

The K♠6♦2♠8♦9♠ board delivered a flush on the river and Fuller doubled, then snapped a picture of his double.

"This might be the only picture I get," he jokingly said.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

"Check-raise the flop and triple barrel," James Romero told the live reporting team when a bigger pot was brewing on his table. The hand featured Kristen Foxen in the big blind and Kharlin Sued on the button and the board showed J♠8♥3♠K♠J♦. Foxen's final barrel was for 17,000 and Sued went deep into the tank before he folded.

"What did you show Kristen?" Romero jokingly asked and Foxen smiled back when she said "I didn't show".
