$100 + $25 No Limit Hold’Em Deep Stack

Blinds 75/150

We have just started play in Level 3 and we’re almost up to the number of entrants we had in Day 1A. 185 have registered and there is still approximately 55 minutes before registration closes for the night.

With the deep stacks and the blinds low, there is a lot of post-flop action which often at this stage will lead to big hands being cracked. An older (but young at heart) man doubled up with when he flopped an open ended straight draw and flush draw and turned the flush and moved all in when the river was a blank. As his younger opponent contemplated calling, the old man sat their stoic, staring off into space as if he was pondering all the things he’s done in his life. The younger opponent tried to get a read on him, and unable to do so decided to make the call. He slammed his cards face down in disgust when he saw the flush his opponent held.

Meanwhile, at another table pocket aces was actually able to withstand a flush and straight draw leading to a double up for the holder of the rockets. Cowboys, however, were not so fortunate at another table as the player holding the kings would call a large raise from his opponent on a 5-3-3 flop and also call his opponent’s all in on the 9 turn. Sure enough, his opponent held 4-3 suited for flopped trips.
