Cash games returned to the Poker At The Lodge on Saturday after taking a week off for tournament streams. The Lodge Championship Series Main Event ran its course last week, with five days of the tournament's feature table action streamed the journey to a $417,000 overlay for the tournament and a $428,000 victory for Michael Liang.

Having crowned an LCS champion, the usual $5/$10 cash games then returned to Poker At The Lodge on the weekend with a four-hour stream on Saturday and Sunday.

Among the familiar faces, there was some new blood. Andrijana "Lija" Gligoric��a member of GGPoker's GGTeam��made her Poker At The Lodgedebut on the Saturday stream. However, Gligoric failed to catch much in the way of hands, starting with $2,000 in front of her but ending the session down by $4,220.

Hai Hand Wins

The biggest hand of Saturday's stream started out as a multiway pot. Five players put in $600 apiece to see a flop of J?3?4?.

With everyone just about missing the flop, it was checked around to Hai who bet $1,000 into the $3,260 pot with pocket sevens. JWin called with 7?6? for a gutshot straight draw.

On a turn of 10?, both players checked and the dealer dealt the J?. JWin shoved for $3,995 effective on a total bluff with seven high. After a brief and comically misunderstood bit of thinking out loud, Hai put in his chips, winning the $13,250 pot.

Draws To Everything

The Sunday stream had even bigger things in store. The blinds had crept up to $50/$100 by the time Tito made it $225 from under the gun with just 9?3? in the hole. "T-1000" raised him to $900 from the hijack with the 8?5? and got a call from Nick on the button with A?2?. Tito called the raise.

The flop came A?9?6? giving two players a flush draw and Nick a pair of aces. Tito��having repped big cards preflop and picked up middle-pair to go with his draw��check-raised all in for $10,210.

T-1000 contemplated a call with just a gutshot straight to go with a slightly worse flush draw. He went into the tank for a couple of minutes before eventually calling.

Now it was Nick's turn in the tank with his aces. However, he let them go and the other two tabled their hands. The pot stood at $26,125 and the dealer ran the turn and river twice. Tito's hand held both times, scooping the whole thing.
